Charlotte play host to their New York City in the first leg of the MLS playoffs last 16. Charlotte finished the regular season in style, with the team beating both DC United and Philadelphia Union without conceding, but they will have a big fish to fry in Tuesday’s encounter. Pep Biel continues to miss out with a knee injury, while fellow midfielder Nikola Petkovic is rated doubtful for the first leg.
The Blue Pigeons, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Philadelphia Union and Seattle Sounders. Given Charlotte’s signs of improvement in October, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. Both Keaton Alexander Parks and Malachi Jones are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team, while Argentine forward Agustin Ojeda should be recalled to the starting XI.
This MLS match will be played on Tuesday 28 October 2025 at 22:45.
