The final weekend of Major League Soccer's regular season features a clash between two teams at the bottom of the Eastern Conference: Atlanta United FC and D.C. United. Both sides have endured miserable campaigns and are fighting to avoid finishing last. Atlanta is winless in its last five outings and has lost the past three matches in a row. Their overall record is just 5 wins, 16 draws, and 12 losses, underlining a season-long slump in form.
Defensive frailties have plagued Atlanta all year – they have conceded 62 goals, one of the worst totals in the league. Even home form has been poor, with only four wins at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Nevertheless, with one final home game to play, Atlanta will be eager to end on a positive note and restore some pride.
D.C. United's season has been equally disappointing. They sit at the bottom of the standings with a 5-10-18 record and have not won any of their last five matches. In fact, D.C. lost their last two games without scoring a goal, highlighting severe struggles in attack. Over the season, they managed only 29 goals (the lowest in the conference) while conceding 65 (the most in the East).
Their most recent defeat, a 0-1 home loss, saw two D.C. players sent off, reflecting the club's frustration. D.C.'s away form has also been dismal, with just three wins on the road all year. Confidence is low in the squad, but they will attempt to snap their scoring drought and finish the year with some dignity.

Our Atlanta United Fc vs DC United Prediction
Atlanta's bright spots have been limited. One standout is forward Emmanuel Latte Lath, who leads the team with 7 goals. Attacking midfielder Alexey Miranchuk has also contributed 6 goals and 6 assists, providing creativity in the final third. These two have been rare positives in an otherwise weak offense. Atlanta will hope Latte Lath can rediscover his scoring touch and that Miranchuk can unlock D.C.'s defense in this finale.
For D.C. United, veteran striker Christian Benteke remains the main goal threat with 9 goals this season. Midfielder Gabriel Pirani has added 6 goals and a few assists, making him the second-leading scorer for D.C. Benteke's physical presence and experience, combined with Pirani's creativity, are crucial to any hopes of breaking their scoring slump. However, D.C. will be shorthanded due to recent red-card suspensions, which further complicates their task.
Given both teams' struggles, this match is likely to be a cagey, low-scoring affair. Atlanta United appears to have a slight edge playing at home, especially considering D.C. United's poor form and depleted lineup. Atlanta's somewhat better attacking output and D.C.'s ongoing goal drought suggest the hosts might be stronger on the day. A narrow Atlanta win is a plausible outcome, as D.C.'s difficulties in scoring and their defensive lapses may tip the balance in Atlanta's favor. Our prediction for Atlanta United FC vs D.C. United: Atlanta United in the second half.
