Toronto FC must beat Atlanta United on Sunday to keep its slim playoff hopes alive, after a midweek win over D.C. United. A draw or loss could eliminate Toronto depending on results elsewhere, while even a victory would leave its postseason fate partly reliant on other teams. Toronto will try to build on its comeback win, but has not won a regular-season match at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Atlanta has already been eliminated from playoff contention.
