Atlanta United will play at Nashville in the fourth round of the U.S. Open Cup at 8 p.m. on May 11.
The draw was held Thursday. Atlanta United didn’t apply to host because its venues were booked.

Atlanta United advanced to the fourth round by defeating Chattanooga 6-0 on Wednesday at Kennesaw State.
