Orlando ended a four-game winless streak last weekend, gaining a 3-1 victory over Inter Miami, thanks to strikes by Ercan Kara, Martin Ojeda and Rafael Santos.
City has one of the best road records in MLS, scoring 11 points from 6 away games so far this season.
But, Orlando will be coming back to their turf today, and they spot the worst home record in the Eastern Conference, with only 8 points from 7 games, keeping them 7th in the conference standings.
City will still enter this game undefeated in their last 2 home games, defeating Los Angeles Galaxy on April 30th and sharing points with New York City FC on May 18.
Possible Lineup: Gallese, Smith, Antonio, Jansson, Araujo, Cartagena, Angulo, Torres, Gonzalez, Kara.

The points Atlanta United shared with Chicago Fire was a fierce match that gave both teams a red card.
Andrew Gutman started the scoring in the 29th minute, but both clubs entered the interval on level terms after Juanjo Purata scored an own goal.
Maren Haile-Selassie, delivered Chicago’s lead after a restart before Giorgos Giakoumakis’ brace seemed to have secured all three points for Atlanta. But Georgios Koutsias got a draw for Chicago with an 89th-minute equaliser.
That record put Atlanta in 4th position in the Eastern Conference after obtaining 22 points in 14 games. However, they have not won on the road since their 3-0 win against Charlotte FC on March 11.
Since that win at the Bank of America Stadium, Atlanta has scored only 3 points from their next 6 away matches, so they’ll try to boost that record this weekend.
Possible Lineup: Westberg, Hernandez, Sanchez, Robinson, Gutman, Ibarra, Rossetto, Giakoumakis, Almada, Etienne; Berry.
MatchPlug Prediction
Orlando City and Atlanta United have played in similar capacities, so separating the sides today won’t be a big issue.
Given that Orlando has performed poorly at home this year, and Atlanta is on a six-match winless streak on the road, experts deduce the match will end in a draw.
