Why Bet on the NY Red Bulls?
New York Red Bulls have proven to be a serious contender this season. However, they are going through a somewhat irregular moment, suffering several setbacks. In their last match, they lost the Big Apple derby 2-1 to New York City.
They have two defeats and three draws in their last seven matches, so they are in fifth place with 23 points, 11 behind the Eastern Conference leader, Inter Miami. The team has scored 25 goals, the second-best offense in its group, behind Inter’s 38. However, the defense has not been an outstanding aspect, allowing 21 conversions.
It is six games in a row of scoring and conceding goals for New York, which has Scot Lewis Morgan as its best scorer, with nine celebrations. Moreover, this team has never lost at home against Charlotte, so it has an undefeated record to protect against this rival.Â
For this match, the NY Red Bulls have Peter Stroud injured and Sean Nealis suspended.
Why Bet on Charlotte FC?
Charlotte FC has had a good semester so far in 2024, as it is now accessing the playoffs directly, avoiding the MLS Wild Card. This team is coming from a 0-0 tie in their visit to Philadelphia Union, being their second consecutive goalless draw, as it had also happened against Los Angeles Galaxy. On the other hand, they have a five-game unbeaten run.Â
The Princess’ team has sinned of being a very poor offense, and it has only 14 celebrations.In this sense, for their last ten games, they have scored nine goals, so the average is not even enough for the goal per match in that span of games. Their best scorer does not have a great scoring figure either, as Patrick Agyemang only has three goals and one assist. A far cry from the 13 goals of Cristian Arango, who for now takes the Golden Boot.Â
But if offense is a problem, defense is a virtue for this team, which has only conceded 13 goals. They have not received a goal in their last five matches.Â
The only confirmed absentee is Finnish defender Jere Uronen.Â
