Orlando City vs Atlanta United Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | MLS 2025

Luis Muriel can very well prove to be Orlando City’s messiah against Atlanta United

Florida’s own Orlando City will host Atlanta United in their upcoming fixture of the MLS 2025. This Eastern Conference match will surely be high stakes for Atlanta as they are lingering at the bottom half of their zone. Atlanta are placed 12th on the table and presently on 9 points, winning just two of their games.

Orlando City, however, are doing much better. The Lions are placed seventh on the table with 13 points to their name. As things stand, they are well on course for the final series if they keep this level going forward.

However, despite their heroic victory against LA Galaxy (1-2), where they came from behind to win the game, courtesy of goals from Martin Ojeda and Luis Muriel, they have had three consecutive draws. A display that is well below their usual standards.

Oscar Pareja’s team will surely look to get another win soon to climb even higher on the table. Furthermore, Atlanta’s current form will provide the Orlando coach confidence. A loss against New England (0-1) and Philadelphia (3-0) in back to back games is bound to rattle some nerves in the Georgia based side.

Players to Watch

Luis Muriel (Orlando City)

Luis Muriel‘s blitzkrieg performance for Atalanta is still fresh in every passionate football lover’s mind. The Colombian was a goal-scoring machine during his time in Bergamo. In his five-year tenure at the club, the former Udinese and Sampdoria player scored 54 goals.

The 34 year old Muriel has now brought in his vast experience to the United States. Coincidentally it was also his goal that helped his side secure a victory against LA Galaxy in their last win of the tournament after both teams were tied 1-1.

Brad Guzan (Atlanta United)

Brad Guzan has won a lot of accolades in his career. Be it the MLS “Best Goalkeeper of the Year (2007)”, Aston Villa “Player of the Season (2012-13)”, “MLS Save of the Year” among many others. The tall and powerful goalkeeper is known to be the best at the MLS in saving penalties.

Despite his team’s underwhelming performance this year, one can certainly count on Guzan’s cheetah-esque reflexes to restrict damage under the Atlanta nets.

Match Prediction
