Analysis
Atlanta United is coming into this match with a heavy trend to the over in their recent matches. They have gone over 2.5 goals in their last 2 straight as well as 6 of their last 7 matches. Their attack has been good in these as they have scored at least 2 goals in each of their last 2 as well as 3 of their last 5 matches, but their defense has been awful as they have allowed at least 2 goals in 4 of their last 6 matches as well. When playing at home, they have gone over 2.5 goals in their last 6 straight matches there with 3 of those matches seeing at least 4 goals total. This is the 1st match of the Leagues Cup group stage and with only 2 matches to play in the group, every point matters so they are going to be pushing to win this match with the home advantage and will be leaning on their attack to do so since their defense has not been keeping teams out. They are going up against a DC United side that has also been trending heavily to the over in their recent matches. They have gone over 2.5 goals in their last 7 straight matches with 6 of those 7 matches seeing at least 4 goals total in them. Their attack has been very good in these matches as they have scored at least 2 goals in 2 of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 6 matches, but their defense has been awful as they have allowed at least 2 goals in 6 of their last 7 matches, allowing 6 goals in their last 2 matches alone. When playing away from home, they have gone over 3.5 goals in their last 3 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 matches. Just like Atlanta, DC does not have a sound defense that has been keeping teams out so they are going to concede away from home here, but they also have a strong attack to lean on and with only 2 matches in this group stage, any team that falls behind here is going to be forced to push for goals to try and salvage some points. Between these two sides, there will be enough goals in this match to push it over 3 goals. CONCACAF Leagues Cup: Atlanta United/DC United over 3 goals, Rot. 216401
