Atlanta United manager Gerardo Martino said Friday that injured striker Josef Martinez is likely at least two weeks away from returning to action.

Maritnez has missed the last four games with a quadriceps injury. Martino said the team is being cautious.

Atlanta United hosts D.C. United at 3 p.m. Sunday at Bobby Dodd Stadium.

Starting fullback Greg Garza and midfielder Jeff Larentowicz have minor injuries. Both players spent time being treated in last week's win over Real Salt Lake in Utah.
