Prediction: 2-1
Charlotte
New York City and Charlotte go head to head at Yankee Stadium in the closing match of the midweek program. The Blue Pigeons did well to beat CF Montreal thanks to Matias Pellegrini’s goal, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence and a win over Charlotte could see them climb to the playoffs berth. Thiago Martins continues to miss out with a knee injury, while fellow midfielder James Sands is on international duty.
The visitors, on the other hand, failed to win the previous five league matches. Considering that Christian Lattanzio’s men are not regarded as good travellers, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts, who have been showing signs of improvement of late. The good news for the away side is that experienced defender Nathan Byrne is back from suspension, while both Hamady Diop and Adilson Malanda are out of contention with injuries.
