Atlanta United FC
Alexey Miranchuk — M. Miranchuk has driven the Atlanta attack with 5 goals and 3 assists across 16 appearances this season, the most complete scoring-and-creating line on the roster. That combination makes him the focal point of whatever Atlanta tries to build going forward at Subaru Park.
Emmanuel Latte Lath — F. Latte Lath has found the net twice in 14 appearances up top, giving Atlanta a second forward option alongside Miranchuk’s playmaking. His appearance total shows he has been a regular fixture in the attack despite the modest goal count.
Cooper Sanchez — M. Sanchez has racked up 3 assists across 16 appearances, matching Miranchuk’s assist total and giving Atlanta a second reliable source of chance creation out of central midfield. His involvement in 16 matches underlines how central he has become to the buildup play.
Philadelphia Union
Milan Iloski — F. Iloski has been Philadelphia’s most dangerous finisher this season, striking 9 goals in 17 appearances, more than a third of the Union’s 22 total goals. His scoring rate makes him the clear focal point of the home attack in front of the Subaru Park crowd.
Danley Jean Jacques — M. Jean Jacques has chipped in 2 goals across 16 appearances from midfield, adding a secondary scoring threat behind Iloski. His presence in 16 of Philadelphia’s matches this season points to a consistent role in the attacking midfield mix.
Frankie Westfield — D. Westfield stands out for a defender, setting up 5 assists in just 14 appearances from the back line. That kind of output turns defense into an extra creative outlet for a Philadelphia side that needs every source of chance creation it can find.
