Fast improving Atlanta United will be looking to make it four wins in a row when they host the LA Galaxy at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Saturday night.

After a woeful first few weeks of the campaign, Atlanta have finally found their best form and are now just two points outside of the playoff places. Last week's impressive 3-1 victory over Montreal, thanks to two strikes from Georgian forward Saba Lobjanidze, was Atlanta's best display of the season. If they can produce a similar level of performance on Saturday, they will have every chance of making it five wins on the spin. 

Last weekend's 1-1 draw with the Whitecaps means that LA have two wins, two draws and two defeats from their last six games. It's early days, but unless Galaxy boss Greg Vanney can get some consistency from his team, it's hard to see them challenging for honours this season.

Our Atlanta United Fc vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction

These are two very evenly matched sides, but based on recent form, we are giving the nod to Atlanta.

Gerardo Martino's team are playing their best football of the season and will come into Saturday's game full of confidence following their impressive win over Montreal last week. 

In contrast, the Galaxy's erratic recent displays make them very tough to back. So, whilst the bookies are making this a coin flip matchup, we think the smart option is to back the hosts. 

Our prediction for Atlanta United vs LA Galaxy is: Atlanta to win and both teams to score. 

Prediction:

 

Atlanta to win and both teams to score
