The North Atlanta Warriors will venture away from home to take on the Midtown Knights at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. North Atlanta is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 2.6 goals per game this season.
Having struggled with four losses in a row, North Atlanta turned things around against Alpharetta last Tuesday. They put the hurt on the Raiders with a sharp 6-1 win. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for North Atlanta considering their one-goal performance the match before.
Their offense was hitting Alpharetta from everywhere, as five different players booted in a goal. Francie Herring led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by herself.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 12 goals the game before, Midtown was a bit more limited in their contest last Thursday. They took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of Greater Atlanta Christian.

Midtown's defeat ended a four-game streak of away wins and brought them to 9-4. As for North Atlanta, they now have a winning record of 7-6.
North Atlanta came out on top in a nail-biter against Midtown when the teams last played back in February of 2024, sneaking past 2-1.
