The second half of the 2023 MLS season is in full swing, and all teams have a clear objective: win as many games as possible to qualify for the postseason.
We now have FC Cincinnati and St. Louis City continuing to lead both league conferences, but the gap between them and second place in the table is not very big. As a result, anything can happen at the top of the table in the next few rounds.
On the other hand, talking about the Eastern Conference and what we observed in the Leagues Cup with Inter Miami, they should be very careful because, from being the worst team in MLS to being the Leagues Cup champions, there is a remarkable difference in level. However, we all know that this is due to the signing of Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba, who brought life back to this team that, for many, was already dead.
Now, the teams of the Eastern Conference will have to fight at all times to score as many points as possible in the face of a very likely awakening of Inter Miami in the second half of the season.
When:
Sunday, Saturday 26 at 07:30 PM ET at Mercedes-Benz Stadium
Moneyline odds:
Atlanta United +110
Nashville SC +242
Draw Offs:
+265
Where to watch?
Why Bet on the Atlanta United?
Atlanta United had a truly amazing start to the 2023 MLS season; for several weeks, they were fighting for the top of the standings. However, as time passed, the team’s performance went into free fall, and they are currently in 7th place with a record of 10 wins, 8 draws, and 7 losses.
In the Leagues Cup, the Black and Red failed to win a single match, losing 4-0 to new powerhouse Inter Miami and then losing 4-5 on penalties to Cruz Azul.
However, in their return to MLS action the previous weekend, Atlanta United scored an excellent 2-0 win over the visiting Seattle Sounders.
Why Bet on the Nashville SC?
Nashville SC, on the other hand, is one of the best teams in MLS at the moment. Although the team is currently in sixth place in the table, they achieved an excellent performance in the Leagues Cup, reaching the Grand Final of the tournament against Inter Miami.
However, after fighting tooth and nail against Messi’s new team, they drew 1-1 to force a penalty shootout. Ultimately, Inter won this match and was proclaimed tournament champion.
Nashville has nothing to blame itself for, as it is one of the most consistent teams in this 2023 MLS season. Likewise, a lack of goals has hurt this team through the first 24 games. As a result, if the team wants to fight to be at the top of the Eastern Conference, they will have to improve their offensive performance from now on.
