As the regular season ends soon, the race for playoff qualification in the Eastern Conference is coming down to the wire. Decision Day, which falls on October 19, is just around the corner and both Atlanta United and CF Montréal are fighting for a postseason spot.
Coming into this match, the 5-Stripes sit at 11th with 34 points. Just above them in 10th place is Montréal with 37 points. Both are on the outside looking in as the Philadelphia Union sits in the last playoff spot with 37 points. Right now, the Union's goal differential of 10 compared to CF Montréal's -17 is the deciding factor.
With a win, Atlanta could leapfrog Montréal and put themselves in a better position for the final two matches of the regular season.
Atlanta United joined Major League Soccer in 2017 and won the 2018 MLS Cup in just its second season, the earliest an expansion team has won the title since 1998. The club has set multiple league records including season tickets sales (36,000-plus), single-season average (53,002) and total home attendance (901,033). Owned by Arthur M. Blank, Atlanta United plays its home matches at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. For more information about Atlanta United, including how to purchase season tickets, visit: www.atlutd.com.
