New England vs Atlanta United Prediction & Pick

These squads line up similarly on the offensive end of the pitch. Both New England and Atlanta rank among the top five teams in goals scored and the top 10 teams in accurate shooting percentage. It is on the defensive end of the pitch where New England has a massive advantage on Wednesday night.

The Revolution has posted the third-best save percentage in the MLS (76.5%), while Atlanta has posted the absolute worst (57.3%). Not only that, but Atlanta has conceded the second-most goals in the league (35). An inability to keep opponents from finding the back of the net is never a good thing.

I'll back a New England team that is 7-3-0 (W-D-L) at home to earn a hard-fought impactful victory.

Final Score Prediction: New England: 2 | Atlanta United: 1

New England vs Atlanta United Best Bet

Sticking with New England on the moneyline is the best way to go. The Revolution have yet to suffer a loss on their home pitch and enter Wednesday with a 3-2-0 (W-D-L) record in their last five matches against Atlanta. Manager Bruce Arena's team knows that a win would not only create distance from other teams in the middle of the conference, but provide a shot to compete for the No .1 seed as well.

Bet: New England Revolution ML (-125)
