New York Red Bulls vs Atlanta United: Prediction for the Match on June 01, 2025
On June 1, a night of rivalry unfolded at Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, where New York Red Bulls hosted Atlanta United in an MLS-related 2025 battle. The Red Bulls were founded in 1995 as a charter MLS club and now sit seventh in the East after less than glorious treatment of Charlotte, 7-0, while Atlanta, MLS Cup winners in 2018 with the record 1.65 points per game in 2019, are sitting on two wins coming into the accident after a 3-2 win in Orlando.
Since 2017, Atlanta hasn't won at this stadium! The odds, according to 1xbet, list the Red Bulls at 1.91 and Atlanta at 3.75; however, March’s blank scoreline is offering some intrigue here. Will the home side go berserk, or will the 5-Stripes soar high in this outing? Spills some stats, forms, and picks for this epic!

Like a raging bull, New York Red Bulls stormed onto the Sports Illustrated Stadium pitch, never moving their horns from Atlanta United’s defense! Sitting seventh in the Eastern Conference, their 6-6-3 record does boast that 7-0 thrashing of Charlotte FC on May 28, with two goals each from Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, as reported by khelnow.com. At home, they are almost invincible with a 6-1-1 record-wining six out of their last seven, though a 2-0 loss to NYCFC in Hudson River Derby on May 17 did hurt a bit, per hudsonriverblue.com.
Last match stats: 38% possession, 6 corners, 3 yellow cards, 1 shot on target. Season stats: 1.1 goals/game, 5.1 corners/game, 1.0 goals conceded/game, 1.4 yellows/game. Founded as MetroStars, they made it to the 2024 MLS Cup Final but lost 2-1 to LA Galaxy, per sportsmole.co.uk.
Coach Sandro Schwarz told Sports Mole: “We’re ready to dominate at home.” Choupo-Moting is leading with his 7 goals this season, but injuries to Lewis Morgan and Felipe Carballo's suspension may test the depth. Fans on X are warning that it might be a trap game off the back of Atlanta's recent wins. Can this bull with three Supporters' Shields gore through Atlanta's resurgence?
New York Red Bulls Lineup
Expected Lineup: Coronel (GK), Duncan, Eile, Valencia, Carballo, Stroud, Sofo, Forsberg, Carmona, Choupo-Moting, Morgan
Out: Mitchell, Nealis, Lewis Morgan, Felipe Carballo (suspended), Morales
Head Coach: Sandro Schwarz

Atlanta United: form and statistics
The Atlanta outfit seizes the opportunity to land in Harrison like a fiery phoenix whose wings are tipped with flames against Red Bulls’ home might! They stand ninth in the East; holding a 5-7-3 record, they have gone through a two-match winning streak, scooping an electrifying 3-2 win against Orlando City on May 28, thanks to the brace of Jamal Thiaré, per atlutd.com. The away form is nonetheless a question mark, with no wins in six (0-2-4)—all very different from the 2018 MLS Cup-winning season under Tata Martino, per mlssoccer.com. Last game stats: 38% possession, 6 corners, 3 yellows, 1 on target. Season stats: 1.1 goals per game, 5.1 corners per game, 1.0 goals conceded per game, and 1.4 yellow cards per game.
An East Conference Semifinal loss to Orlando City in 2024 still stings, per sportsmole.co.uk. Head Coach Ronny Deila told 929TheGame, "We’re bringing fire to this fight." Thiaré is threatening with 5 goals in 2025, but Stian Gregersen and Tristan Muyumba remain out injured, per posts on X.
There is a little drama on X; can Alexey Miranchuk crack New York’s defense? Can this phoenix that has created crowds of more than 70,000 at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium finally destroy Sports Illustrated Stadium?
Atlanta United Lineup
Expected Lineup: Guzan (GK), Lobjanidze, Edwards, Williams, Abram, Hernandez, Miranchuk, Slisz, Fortune, Almiron, Lath
Out: Gregersen, Muyumba, Cohen, Lennon (doubtful)
Head Coach: Ronny Deila

New York Red Bulls vs Atlanta United Match Prediction
The Sports Illustrated Stadium will be a powder keg ready to explode on June 1, 2025, when the New York Red Bulls (1.91) host Atlanta United (3.75) in an MLS showdown that will surely keep the fans at their seats! The 6-6-3 run and 7-0 shellacking of Charlotte—Choupo-Moting scoring twice—show the Red Bulls dominating at home, 6-1-1 now at Sports Illustrated Stadium. Yet their 2-0 defeat at the hands of NYCFC on May 17 revealed some cracks in the armor, and X users are already warning of a trap game. Atlanta's 5-7-3 run and 3-2 win over Orlando—Thiaré scoring twice symbolizing their fight—suggests a rallying team, yet the away patch of 0-2-4 and historical woes at this venue are looming large.
The 2024 MLS Cup Final run of the Red Bulls slightly edges out the H2H's 0-0 draw, while Atlanta's 2018 title adds a little heat. Expect an eruption of noise with the Red Bulls fans roaring and the 5-Stripes desperate to break the curse at this stadium. Both teams' defenses have been leaking, 1.0 goal given every game, so goals are on the cards, but New York should hold strong on their home turf in an exhilarating match.
