Toronto FC vs. Atlanta United MLS Odds and Betting Trends

Over 19 meetings in the competition so far, Toronto barely holds the candle with six wins to Atlanta’s five. While Atlanta claimed the last victory for either side back in June 2024, this fixture has seen a tie for the last two straight games, with four ties in the last six matchups, and their most recent confrontation in August 2025 ended scoreless.

Toronto are the considerable home favourites here at -120 on the MLS odds, while Atlanta comes in as +300 challengers. A draw is set for +255 in this one.

Atlanta United

Atlanta United appears to carry over their troubles from last season (14th-place finish) as they currently reside in 15th in the East with just one win. They’ve accumulated seven losses with four straight in the MLS, having not won a league game since March 14, although they did scrape out a US Open Cup Round of 32 victory 3-1 against Chattanooga on April 15. Five of their losses were by two goals, leading them to a -9 GD, with their most recent match against the New England Revolution concluding 2-1 in the Revs’ favour at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

On the bright side, Toronto does have one of the highest goals allowed counts at 17, and it’ll take some extra effort from Emmanuel Latte Lath (one goal this season) and Cayman Togashi to create some chances as they come in set to score at +240 and 260 respectively. Out of just seven team goals, Alekset Miranchuk is the team’s highest goalscorer with four on his own is ready to score in this one at +300.

Toronto FC

Toronto FC could be on track to have their first successful season since 2020, a team that was mighty successful from 2016 to 2019 with three MLS Cup Final appearances and one MLS Cup trophy. They’ve got work to do, though, as they currently sit at sixth in the standings with a -1 GD. They’ve drawn the last three straight, but have been undefeated since their February 28 loss to Vancouver for seven straight games. In particular, Toronto hasn’t lost at home at all this season, which means they could have a big advantage for, especially against an unimpressive Atlanta side.

While Atalanta boasts a goalscorer with more goals than any Toronto player, Toronto boasts more than double Atlanta’s goal count (16), with players like Josh Sargent (+125), DeAndre Keer (+135), Emilio Aristizabal (+185), and Jules-Anthony Vilsaint (+195) all capable of hitting the back of the net. Daniel Salloi comes in at +220 as the team’s top scorer with three under his belt already.

MLS Prediction: Who Will Win Toronto FC vs. Atlanta United?

While a draw does look promising, given Toronto has the greatest number of ties coming off three straight, it’s time they took advantage of their home field energy and outscored one of the worst teams in the MLS.

Atlanta has a -9 goal differential, with only seven goals scored (lowest in the MLS), half of which come from contributions from a single player. If Alekset Miranchuk gets locked out, it’s pretty much over for the Georgia side.

With those considerations, expect Toronto to see this one out with a victory, likely by just one goal (1-0), given all their wins this season have been close.
