Sat May 03 17:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Nashville SC Looks to Continue Winning Streak Against Struggling Atlanta United

**ATLANTA, GA –** Riding high after a record-breaking 7-2 victory over the Chicago Fire, Nashville SC (5-4-1, 16 points) faces a crucial test on the road against Atlanta United (2-5-3, 9 points) this Wednesday, May 3rd, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The match will be nationally televised on FOX.

Nashville’s offensive explosion against Chicago, fueled by Sam Surridge’s four-goal performance, marked the club’s highest-scoring game in its history. Surridge (6 goals) and Hany Mukhtar (4 goals) lead a potent Nashville attack that has already netted 19 goals this season – their best offensive start ever.

However, Nashville will be without defender Walker Zimmerman, who remains sidelined with a concussion. The team also holds a poor 1-3 road record this season, their only win coming against the Philadelphia Union.

Atlanta, despite boasting a roster including the MLS’s most expensive signing, forward Emmanuel Latte Lath ($22 million), and the return of star midfielder Miguel Almiron, has struggled, losing their last three games. While they pulled off an upset playoff win over Inter Miami last season, their current 2-2-2 home record presents a winnable opportunity for Nashville.

This match marks the second of four nationally televised games for Nashville SC in 2025 and can also be streamed via MLS Season Pass on Apple TV. The outcome will be a significant indicator of both teams’ playoff aspirations.
