Brad Guzan - Excellent in loss Guzan made six saves during Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Guzan was absolutely excellent Wednesday, and yet he ended up taking home the loss despite saving six of the seven shots he faces. It's been a tough year for the keeper who seems unable to catch a break with the team in front of him. He will hope to turn it around against NYRB on Sunday.

Franco Ibarra - Busy defensively Ibarra made five tackles and two interceptions during Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Ibarra had quite literally nothing to do offensively Wednesday, but he put in a mighty shift defensively. The midfielder was excellent, and left the match with a team-leading five tackles. His value is limited as long as he plays so defensively, but he will hope to change that Sunday, against NYRB at home.

Marcelino Moreno - Held quiet in loss Moreno registered no shots or chances created during Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Moreno failed to register a single shot for the first time this season, and failed to create a chance for only the second time. The striker has been excellent in attacking midfield and up top, but was completely smothered by NYCFC. Next up is a Sunday clash against NYRB.

Brooks Lennon - Nine crosses in loss Lennon sent in nine crosses (five accurate), creating three chances during Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Lennon was unstoppable down the right side of midfield, even though he officially lined up at right-back. The defender was bombing forward incessantly, and would have well-earned a spot on the scoresheet. Next up is a Sunday clash with NYRB for Lennon and Atlanta.
JUNE 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Alec Kann - Back from injury Kann has been on the bench in Atlanta's past couple matches after missing the first two months of the season because of a shoulder injury.
Impact Kann is again an option for Atlanta, but he remains the backup to Brad Guzan. His last appearance in league play came in 2018, meaning unless Guzan gets hurt, he probably won't get a chance to feature in 2021.

Jurgen Damm - Traveling to New York Damm (strain) is traveling to New York for Wednesday's match against NYC FC, according to Doug Roberson of AJC.
Impact Damm has been training for a few days and looks to be an option again Wednesday after missing the last two months with a muscle injury. He's still probably another week away from a start, but he at least gives Atlanta an option off the bench.

Atlanta United FC faces New York City FC after 3 straight draws
Atlanta United FC plays New York City FC after playing to a draw in three straight gamesJUNE 21, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Brad Guzan - Concedes two in draw Guzan conceded two goals and made three saves during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Philadelphia.
Impact Guzan made in 84 minutes into the game without conceding before be bundled a save in front of the onrushing Corey Burke to lose his clean sheet. It would've been more difficult to stop Jakob Glesnes thundering goal, so that can be somewhat forgiven through how poorly the defense played as well. In either case, Guzan has recorded one win and three draws from his last four games. With two games upcoming against NYCFC and the New York Red Bulls, Guzan needs to be sharper to up his clean sheet tally and fantasy value.
JUNE 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Anton Walkes - Scores in draw Walkes scored one goal on his only shots and won two-of-two tackles during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Philadelphia.
Impact Walkes flicked in a header from Brooks Lennon to double the lead, though soon after his defending got worse and the visiting side were able to find two goals of their own in the final stages of the game. For Walkes, he done decently to record at least two interceptions in three of the last four matches. However, a single clean sheet kept all season isn't as beneficial to his fantasy value. He'll next face NYCFC, which have scored the third-most goals in MLS and the most in the Eastern Conference.
JUNE 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ezequiel Barco - Takes four shots in draw Barco took four shots (zero on goal) and logged a secondary assist during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Philadelphia.
Impact Barco has only played five times this season but has already taken nine shots and created eight chances. If he can stick in the team for an extended period of time, Barco looks capable of putting up better scoring numbers than he has in MLS so far. Up next is a trip to NYCFC, which have conceded 10 goals in eight matches.
JUNE 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Erick Torres - Starts in draw Torres put one shot on goal and created two chances during 89 minutes of Sunday's 2-2 draw with Philadelphia.
Impact Torres made his second start of the season while Josef Martinez is absent and couldn't get much going. At this point, it remains to be seen what it will take for Torres to finding his scoring touch after it's evaded him for so long. However, there aren't many other options until Martinez returns, so Torres could build enough rhythm to get into form over the next few weeks. Up next is a trip to NYCFC, which are tied for the second-fewest goals conceded to forwards in MLS.
