Pedro Amador and Alexey Miranchuk are set to play for Atlanta United this Saturday against New England Revolution at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Amador, who missed the last two matches due to a quad injury during warmups against New York City FC, is expected to join the starting lineup. Miranchuk, after being limited by a minor injury, is ready for the match, having substituted in the second half during Atlanta United's 1-1 draw with FC Dallas.
Miranchuk, who has one goal in six starts, recently scored his first goal of the season. Latte Lath assisted him in scoring an equalizer in a match that ended in a 4-3 victory against NYCFC. "I'm happy with what's going on on the field," Miranchuk stated, emphasizing the need to capitalize on goal-scoring opportunities.
Atlanta United head coach Ronny Deila is focused on maximizing the team's attacking potential as the season progresses into its eighth matchday. During a media session, Deila highlighted the importance of optimizing team synergy to enhance performance on the field. Miranchuk's playmaking abilities contribute to the team's dynamic, while Amador adds defensive experience and offensive support, with eight assists recorded the previous year.
Deila emphasized the need for team cohesion, saying, "We have to get things to fit."
