In terms of series history, Atlanta United leads with a record of 9-7-1 (W-L-D) and has won five out of seven previous meetings against D.C. United. Their last encounter earlier this season saw five goals scored but ended with D.C. United taking three points at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Atlanta United enters this double match week sitting 13th in the Eastern Conference table but is just three points behind Philadelphia Union in eighth place. Points earned on the road could significantly boost their standings.

D.C. United has struggled since their win at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on May 11, going winless since then and most recently losing to Charlotte FC at Bank of America Stadium.

Key players to watch include Xande Silva from Atlanta United and Christian Benteke from D.C. United. Silva recently scored an impressive goal against Houston Dynamo and has two goals in his last two matches. Benteke remains a significant threat for D.C., having scored a hat trick earlier this year against Atlanta and currently sits three goals behind Golden Boot leader Cristian Arango of Real Salt Lake with a total of 13 goals this season.
