Daniel Gazdag: 5 assists – still searching for first goal in 12 games
Ibrahim Aliyu: Scored vs Vancouver but is a doubt due to injury
Evan Bush (GK): Likely starter with Schulte still recovering
Tactical Outlook
Wilfried Nancy’s side plays a possession-heavy 3-4-2-1, with Rossi and Gazdag operating behind the striker. Columbus have scored 11 goals in their last 5 home games, but have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 13 straight MLS matches.

Key Players
Emmanuel Latte Lath: 5 goals – team’s top scorer
Jamal Thiare: 3 goals in last 5 games – pacey threat in transition
Miguel Almirón: Yet to start since returning; could feature here
Brad Guzan (GK): Veteran presence under pressure
Tactical Outlook
Ronny Deila’s team has leaned on a 3-4-2-1 or 4-2-3-1, but defensive frailty remains a concern. Atlanta have conceded 34 goals in 18 matches and are winless in 8 road games. Their best results come when they score 3+ goals—but they’ve also conceded 2+ in every win.
