Atlanta United vs Orlando City Picks and Predictions May 28th 2025

Orlando City Seeks Club Unbeaten Mark, Face Atlanta United

Orlando City SC head into Wednesday’s clash with Atlanta United looking to rewrite club history. A win or draw on the road would give them a franchise-record 13-game unbeaten streak, extending their already red-hot form in the 2025 MLS season.

Orlando (7-2-6, 27 points) has been one of the league’s most consistent teams in recent weeks, riding a three-game win streak and a 12-match unbeaten run dating back to early March. They’ve outscored opponents 7-1 during their last three wins, including a disciplined 1-0 result over Portland on Saturday, where Duncan McGuire found the net for the match’s only goal.

“The tactical discipline that we have had in the last two or three games has been first class,” said Orlando head coach Oscar Pareja. “And when you sense that the team believes in the idea and you see it on the field, then you have a big chance to win games.”

Orlando in Peak Form, Atlanta Hoping to Build Momentum

Orlando’s plus-12 goal differential ranks third in MLS, a testament to their balance on both ends of the pitch. Their tactical execution has improved dramatically, and with McGuire and Facundo Torres leading the attack, they’ve developed into one of the most efficient teams in the league.

Meanwhile, Atlanta United (3-7-5, 14 points) finally snapped an eight-game winless skid with a 4-2 victory over FC Cincinnati on Sunday — a performance that injected much-needed life into a stagnant campaign. The goals came from an unlikely mix: Derrick Williams, Jay Fortune, and Bartosz Slisz all scored their first of the season before Jamal Thiare capped the win. It was Atlanta’s first offensive outburst since late March.

“Big, big credit to the boys,” Atlanta head coach Ronny Deila said. “I see a lot more leadership in the group… We had some really good performances (on Sunday) as individuals and as a team.”

Still, star striker Emmanuel Latte Lath has gone cold, failing to score since March 29, and Atlanta will need him firing if they hope to take points from an Orlando team in peak form.

For those following MLS Betting Trends and Forecasts, this clash offers intriguing contrasts between a rising powerhouse and a desperate contender looking to find its rhythm.
