Availability report: Squad travels to Empire State for NYCFC match

The 5-Stripes are readying for their final midweek match of the 2026 season, a trip up the East Coast to face New York City FC. The 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff Wednesday, Oct. 28 will take place in a new venue for Atlanta United: Citi Field, home of the New York Mets. 

Head coach Tata Martino and his side will need a win to keep their playoff hopes alive, and they'll go into the consequential fixture with just two players missing.  

Enea Mihaj is a new addition to the availability report, and he'll miss the midweek match with a hip issue. Will Reilly continues healing an ankle injury that Martino said would sideline him for the remainder of the season.
