Who will start for Atlanta United in Saturday’s game at Orlando City?

Well, we know who won't be starting: Josef Martinez. The striker will miss his second consecutive game because of a contusion on his right foot.

So, I expect the lineup for this game will be the same as it was the last time the team played Orlando City way back …. six days ago.

The fullbacks will be Anton Walkes and Greg Garza. The centerhalves will be Leandro Gonzalez Pirez and Michael Parkhurst.

The holding midfielders will be Carlos Carmona and Jeff Larentowicz.

The attacking midfielder will be Miguel Almiron.

The wide midfielders will be Yamil Asad and Julian Gressel, and the striker will be Hector Villalba, who scored last week's winning goal.
