Atlanta United’s injury list is growing.
Jamal Thiaré, who started and scored in last week’s 1-1 draw at New York, is expected to miss between two and four weeks after suffering a hamstring injury in the match while in for the injured Giorgos Giakoumakis.
Centerback Derrick Williams is expected to miss at least two to four weeks because of an injured left calf suffered during the match.
The team was already without centerback Stian Gregersen, who had surgery to repair a torn meniscus three weeks ago. It’s possible he will return to training this week.
Williams could be replaced by Luis Abram. If Giakoumakis doesn’t return this week, Daniel Rios would likely start. Rios also missed last week’s game.
Atlanta will host Philadelphia on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
