MLS Round 2 has a lot of drama in store when Charlotte FC host Atlanta United at Bank of America Stadium on March 1, 2025. It's a match that sees one home team eager to put an end to their goalless streak against an Atlanta side that is full of momentum. Whilst Charlotte continue to seek their first win following a 2-2 Seattle draw, Atlanta come riding the coattails of an edge-of-the-seat 3-2 triumph against CF Montréal. Lots of edge-of-your-seat theatrics in this Eastside affair!

Charlotte FC are looking to find their rhythm in the first part of the season. Coming at 0W-1D-0L, they managed to earn a hard 2‑2 draw against Seattle Sounders, thanks to Adilson Malanda's goal. While, their figures inform us of a side that has been unable to create gilt-edged chances—controlling only 41% possession, creating just one major chance, taking four corners, and managing just one shot on target in their last game. Under Dean Smith and with a 4‑4‑1‑1 system, the Crown are seeking a more tight-knit defence and more creative flair (as much as any reshuffle in midfield) to turn their fortunes around at home.
Atlanta United Preview
Atlanta United come to this game with a much-better mindset. At 1‑0‑0 after an energetic 3‑2 win over CF Montréal, the team's attack is hard to overlook with two goals by Emmanuel Latte Lath and a goal by Edwin Mosquera. Operating in a 4‑2‑3‑1 formation and averaging a higher percentage of possession at 49%, they create four major chances, take seven corners, and shoot eight times on target. Ronny Deila's team is on a five-game unbeaten streak, and their tendencies such as scoring first in 5 out of 6 games and taking the first-half in 4 out of 5 games make them a team to be feared when playing away from home.
Head to Head
The history of clashes between these two sides is as evenly contested as it can be. Charlotte FC and Atlanta United have shared the spoils equally (three each) with no draws in their last 10 encounters. Surprisingly, the latest encounter in MLS 23/24 was a tight 1‑0 victory for Atlanta, which indicates that while the game is evenly poised, the visitors would likely have the upper hand at a psychological level.
