Ethan Horvath

Horvath's biggest appeal is availability and minutes certainty; he's been selected in the Starting XI in all 15 MLS matches this season and you get five appearances in the last 5 game weeks and 15 appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which equals a full 90 every time he's named. That steadiness matters because Atlanta United have struggled to score this year, averaging roughly 1.0 goals per match and posting a very low clean-sheet rate, so Horvath carries legitimate shutout upside if New York can hold shape. Combine those matchup dynamics with his season-level shot-stopping showing and one clean sheet on the books, and the Sorare Edge projection of 74.9 with medium model confidence frames him as a safe-floor start for lineups that prize guaranteed minutes, with upside tied to New York tightening up defensively.
