The pair were prolific last season.

The new MLS season begins this weekend and Josef Martinez will be looking to follow up his phenomenal 2018 campaign as Atlanta bid to defend their MLS Cup title.

Martinez hit 35 goals last season to help his side clinch their first title. Atlanta, who beat Portland Timbers in the MLS Cup final, got the better of Bradley Wright-Phillips' New York Red Bulls in the Eastern Conference final.

Wright-Phillips hit 20 goals last season, as well as becoming the fastest player to notch 100 MLS goals, and the 33-year-old Englishman is showing no sign of slowing down.

Here is a look at two of the MLS' most prolific strikers ahead of the new campaign.
