Coming off back-to-back wins, including an impressive 3-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City at Children's Mercy Park, Atlanta United host Toronto FC Wednesday night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium to kick off Week 11 of the 2019 MLS regular season.

Josef Martinez struck for a brace and Ezequiel Barco had a goal and an assist to lead Atlanta (3-3-2) to a comprehensive road win, and second consecutive clean sheet, Sunday night in Kansas City. It's a win that has many proclaiming Atlanta is back after early struggles, but the Five Stripes will now have to keep momentum without Barco, who joined Argentina ahead of the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Poland.

Toronto FC (5-2-1) bounced back from a home loss to the Portland Timbers to defeat Orlando City SC, 2-0, on the road in Week 10. Jonathan Osorio and Jay Chapman scored 12 minutes apart for the Reds, who have played Atlanta to a pair of 2-2 draws in two all-time road games.
