Atlanta United saw their undefeated streak come to an end when they visited Toronto mid-week. They will now return home for their next assignment, where they will host Montreal Impact on Saturday. Montreal returned from the mini-break (for Canadian teams) with a nice win over Portland.

Atlanta United (8-6-2) are coming off a really frustrating 2-3 loss on the road, in a match where they were actually up by 2-1 at some point but they missed a late penalty kick to pull even. That loss put an end to their four-match undefeated streak they had in all competitions (3-0-1). Atlanta United are sitting 4th in the East with 26 points, four behind DC United. They have been really strong at home so far (5-1-2), keeping clean sheets in each of their last five matches for the MLS. Montreal Impact (9-7-3) did a great job in their return to action, as they managed to beat Portland by 1-2 at home. That was their second consecutive win, and third in their last four. Montreal are still sitting at the 2nd spot of the Eastern Conference with 30 points, just as many as DC United, while both teams are two points behind the top spot. Montreal have the best away record in the Conference (4-5-2) but they have won just two of their last eight away matches (2-4-2).

Atlanta United won both matches against Montreal last season, by 1-4 at home before a 2-1 in Montreal and have the upper hand in this match-up (3-1-0). Going with Atlanta United to cover the spread here, as they will surely be frustrated about their last match.
