Atlanta United host FC Cincinnati in a clash between the bottom two sides of the MLS Eastern Conference.

Both teams come into this game in absolutely atrocious form. Atlanta United haven't won in six games - a period in which they have picked up only two points.

In their last match, Atlanta United were trounced 4-1 by Orlando SC, but the stats suggested that the match was much closer than the eventual scoreline.

If Atlanta United's form is bad, FC Cincinnati's is worse. They haven't won any of their last nine matches, and have lost each of their last eight games.

That has meant that FC Cincinnati are now three points adrift of Atlanta United at the bottom of the MLS Eastern Conference, after a 1-0 loss to Sporting KC in their last match.
