The next game for Atlanta United's Unified team is scheduled against Nashville's Unified team once again, this time at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The match will take place immediately after Atlanta United and Nashville SC face off on Saturday, September 14. Fans attending the primary match can stay to support the Unified team, while those not present can watch via live stream.
