New York City FC vs Charlotte Prediction and Betting Tips | 27th April 2024

New York City host Charlotte at the Yankee Stadium in MLS on Saturday, as both sides are locked on the same number of points.

In nine games, New York City and Charlotte have won thrice each and lost four times to bag 11 points in the new campaign so far.

Interestingly enough, both teams have scored nine goals too, but owing to a slightly better goal difference, New York City sit above Charlotte in eighth.

Having begun their campaign with three losses in a row, the Boys in Blue have slowly found their feet, losing just once in their next six.

Nick Cushing's side have won their last two home games 2-0, beating New England Revolution and DC United in consecutive matches, and are now aiming to register a third win in a row for the first time this season.

Charlotte, on the other hand, have been erratic by comparison. Having begun their campaign with a 1-0 win over New York City on their opening day, the Crown won again only on matchday five and then on matchday eight.

In their most recent outing, though, Dean Smith's side were humbled 3-0 by Minnesota United at home.


New York City FC vs Charlotte Head-To-Head and Key Numbers
