PREVIEW: Orlando City Travels to Face Atlanta United FC on Friday

Lions to square off against Five Stripes in nationally-televised match

ORLANDO, Fla. – Orlando City SC (10-4-8, 38 points) travels to take on neighbors to the north Atlanta United FC (6-7-9, 27 points) on Friday, Sept. 10 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET.

The match will be nationally telecast on FS1 and Fox Deportes, while being transmitted on 96.9 The Game in English and Acción 97.9FM, 810AM in Spanish.

“Atlanta as our next rival, going away and going to play at their place represents another good challenge for us in this run towards making the playoffs. This a situation where we’re coming from a positive result against Columbus and obviously trying to analyze this rival that has changed its head coach and their ideas,” Head Coach Oscar Pareja said. “Our preparation has been intense, trying to reinforce our concepts and try to keep our manners, but at the same time trying to read Atlanta. Our team is going in with a positive mentality as we get ready for this match.”

The Lions will look to extend their current seven-game unbeaten run on Friday night while also looking to add to their six-game stretch of results against the opposition. City currently holds a 3-0-3 record against The Five Stripes dating back to the 2020 MLS campaign, the last matchup resulting in a 3-2 come-from-behind victory for the Club.

City comes into Friday’s match after defeating the Columbus Crew this past Saturday night at Exploria Stadium, taking a 3-2 victory from the match. First-half finishes from Daryl Dike and Silvester van der Water gave the Lions the lead going into the halftime break, but the Crew answered with two goals within 10 minutes of the start of the second half to level. The home side would regain the lead once more however, with Júnior Urso netting the eventual game-winner in the 69th minute.

Nani leads the Lions with nine goals this season, followed by Benji Michel with four. The Lions’ captain sits at second on the side in assists with seven in total, one shy of the leader Mauricio Pereyra with eight.

Atlanta enters the fixture following a week off from match play, last taking the field on Aug. 28 in a 2-0 home defeat to Nashville SC. Second-half finishes from Daniel ​​Ríos and Randall Leal gave the road side the victory on the afternoon, with Joe Willis tallying a pair of saves to keep The Five Stripes scoreless.

Marcelino Moreno leads Atlanta with seven goals this season, followed by Josef Martínez with six. Ezequiel Barco and Brooks Lennon hold the team high in assists, each with four to their credit this campaign.

Following Friday’s contest, the Lions will return home to Exploria Stadium to host CF Montréal on Wednesday, Sept. 15 in a 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff. Tickets are available here or by calling (855) ORL-CITY.

THIS IS SEC FOOTBALL

• Fourteen times in the last 15 seasons, a team from the SEC has advanced to the national championship game. The SEC has won 11 of those contests, with two of the losses coming in the game’s final seconds. The winner of the SEC Championship Game has advanced to the National Championship Game all but once since 2006.

• The SEC finished 7-2 in the postseason in 2020 to lead the nation in bowl wins, with all seven wins coming against Top-25 competition – the most in history for the conference. In the four bowl games where an unranked SEC team played a Top-25 opponent, the SEC went 3-1.

• Since Florida in January 2009, five different teams from the SEC have played for the national championship. Four of those five have multiple appearances and at least one victory since 2007.

• Not counting games versus each other, the SEC is 10-3 all-time in College Football Playoff games, playing in six of the seven CFP Championship Games (winning four of those six). Since 2006, the SEC has posted a 27-14 (.659) record in BCS/CFP games, more wins, appearances and winning percentage than any other A5 conference.

• More than 350 players from Southeastern Conference schools were listed on the initial 53-man NFL rosters to begin the 2020 season. Seven SEC schools were represented by at least 25 former players on active rosters, including Alabama with a league-high 57. In addition to the 53-man active rosters, more than 100 former SEC players are listed on reserve lists or practice squads for NFL teams. A total of 25 former SEC players were on active rosters of the Super Bowl between the Chiefs and Bucs.

• The SEC is 97-55 (.638) in bowl games since 2006, the only FBS league with a .600 or better winning percentage and 30 wins more than the next closest conference.

• The SEC has now won 47 games in the last seven postseasons and has sent no less than eight teams to post-season bowls in each of the last 14 seasons.

• In the seven seasons of the College Football Playoff era, only six programs nationally have been ranked No. 1 in the weekly CFP Top-25 Poll (which begins in late October each year) – four of those six programs (Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State) are from the SEC.

• Nine different SEC teams, including all seven from the SEC Western Division, have made BCS/New Year’s Six bowl game appearances since 2006: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Texas A&M. Since the formation of the College Football Playoff in 2014, six of the seven schools in the Western Division have advanced to a New Year’s Six bowl.

• With Georgia and Alabama both earning victories in the CFP Semifinals in 2017, the national championship game featured two SEC teams for the second time in the last nine seasons.
