October 24th's match against Chicago will be the last of yet another successful campaign for Atlanta United Unified. With trips to Philadelphia and Miami in the books, the 5-Stripes return home for the final match of the 2026 season.Â
Atlanta United Unified brings an unbeaten streak that they're looking to continue for a fourth consecutive season. They'll kick off against Chicago Fire Unified at 2:30 p.m. ET Saturday, Oct. 24 ahead of the First Team's 7:30 p.m. kickoff — a deviation from their usual post-match timeslot.Â
Fans will be able to enter the stadium early to watch the Unified match provided they have a ticket to both the First Team match and the Unified match. Doors open at 1:30 p.m. ET at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and only the North VIP entrance will be open.

About Unified:
Each Unified team is made up of a diverse group of both Special Olympics athletes, individuals with developmental disabilities, and partners, individuals without developmental disabilities. The squads are allowed to freely substitute, giving both rosters a chance to showcase their talent.
The Unified sides train, travel and compete in matches just as the first teams do. It's a truly inclusive space that brings together athletes from all over the Americas.
