New England v Atlanta United

New England Revolution v Atlanta United Preview

New England Revolution will be keen to return to the more familiar surroundings of their Gillette Stadium when they play host to Atlanta United following a 2-1 defeat away from home at New York RB last time out, and the hosts will be keen to get themselves back on track as they look to further consolidate their place in the top seven of the Eastern Conference.

Previous results had certainly been encouraging where New England were concerned as the hosts put together a solid looking seven-match unbeaten run prior to that recent loss, picking up three wins along with gaining points in four draws as well.

Perhaps even more importantly, the three wins for New England were all registered on home turf with victories gained over Inter Miami, Orlando City and Toronto respectively and the bigger picture shows The Revolution have slipped to just three defeats out of their last 18 matches overall.

On home soil, New England have made themselves a tough unit to break down as the hosts have also put together an impressive 11-match unbeaten sequence which includes eight wins.

Atlanta United sit just two places and two points below their upcoming hosts in this all-Eastern Conference clash and the visitors will head into this clash at the Gillette Stadium on the back of two wins on the trot which were picked up against Philadelphia Union and Montreal respectively.

Atlanta have also produced a pretty consistent set of results in recent times in the MLS as the visitors have suffered just the one defeat out of their last 10 matches overall which came in the form of a heavy 4-0 thrashing on the road at New York RB but they've also picked up four wins along the way as well.

However, it's worth noting that three of Atlanta United's recent four wins were achieved on home soil at their Mercedes-Benz Stadium, while results away from home have been poor by comparison to Atlanta's previously solid performances overall.

The visitors have recorded just two wins on their travels all season in this MLS campaign and this will give New England plenty of belief and confidence in returning to winning ways on Wednesday evening.

New England Revolution v Atlanta United Verdict

New England have won both of the previous two home meetings against Atlanta United and with home advantage behind them here along with Atlanta United's poor sequence of results on the road which has seen the visitors achieve just three wins from their previous 26 outings on the road, New England look the more likely to take the spoils in this top five clash in the Eastern Conference.

Therefore, our main bet will be New England win @ 1.80

Other side bets worth considering:
