New York Red Bulls host Atlanta United at Red Bull Arena on Saturday, November 7 (4:00 PM ET / 3:00 PM CT / 1:00 PM PT).
New York Red Bulls will lean heavily on forward Julian Zakrzewski Hall, whose 12 goals from 75 shots this season make him the focal point, with Emil Forsberg pulling strings behind him after creating 44 chances. Atlanta United’s threat starts with midfielders Miguel Almirón and Aleksey Miranchuk, level on 6 goals apiece, with Almirón’s 60 chances created the highest tally on either side.
New York Red Bulls sit 10th in the East while Atlanta United are down in 14th with a -16 goal difference across 32 games, and that gap in defensive solidity should matter here. Expect a cagey, tight contest rather than an end-to-end shootout, with Hall’s movement up top enough to nudge the Red Bulls in front of an Atlanta side that has leaked goals all season but rarely gone without scoring itself.
