Charlotte will be desperate to end their four-game winless run when they welcome New York City to Bank of America Stadium. As both Charlotte and New York City look sharp up front, we predict a 2-2 draw. Despite the poor recent run, Charlotte have been far more convincing at home, winning three of their last six matches in front of their fans while averaging an impressive 2.83 goals per game. Defensive issues remain a concern, though, as they have managed just one clean sheet in their last ten outings. Injuries to Henry Kessler and Harry Toffolo are additional setbacks for the hosts, who have seen both teams score in 70% of their recent matches.
New York City, meanwhile, arrive full of confidence after a dominant 3-0 win over Columbus Crew. Hannes Wolf stole the headlines with a hat-trick and will once again be the main attacking threat for the visitors. NYCFC have been inconsistent overall, but their away form has shown improvement lately with two wins from their last four road games. The Blue Pigeons average 2.0 goals per game away from home, but defensive frailties continue to hurt them, with no clean sheets recorded in away fixtures during the last ten matches.
As both sides regularly concede chances, we are tempted to place our bets on Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals (Charlotte matches average 4.0 goals recently).
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 14 May 2026 at 00:15.
