Atlanta United will return to the pitch on Friday after more than two weeks without a match.

To mark the return, an Atlanta United billboard appeared in Orlando on Tuesday ahead of Friday’s match against Orlando City.

The billboard read, “Orlando, we’re coming to conquer.”

Atlanta United’s next two matches are against Orlando City, first at Orlando City Stadium on Friday and then at Bobby Dodd Stadium on July 29.

Friday’s match kicks off at 7 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPN.
