Atlanta United vs Minnesota United FC Prediction and Betting Advice

Atlanta have managed to score 19 goals across their last five home fixtures in the MLS, with Tato Martino’s men known as one of the most thrilling teams in the entire country. Betfred’s offer on there being four or more goals scored in this fixture, therefore, is a fantastic value.

Josef Martinez has 18 league goals to his name in 18 appearances, with the 24-year-old in exceptional form since joining the club last year. Miguel Almiron has had some injury problems lately but also has nine goals in 29 appearances from midfield.

Atlanta are known for their attacking, expansive and generally attractive style of play, and it should pay dividends against a Minnesota defence that isn’t particularly watertight. They arrive with a record of conceding a little over two goals per game so far this MLS campaign.

Our Atlanta United vs Minnesota United FC picks suggest that Winner are offering good value on Minnesota to not hit the back of the net on Wednesday.
