Charlotte FC will be pushing for maximum points to preserve their place in the competition when they face off with Mexican side, Cruz Arul in the League Cup campaign.
Following an awful opening match performance in which they failed to have a shot on target against Philadelphia Union, Dean Smith’s men were defeated 1-0 putting them at risk of elimination from the group stage. A win is necessary at all costs if they are to avoid an early exit from the competition.
The Crown has been poor at home recently with a win in its previous 5 matches ( 3 draws, 1 win, 1 defeat). Their last match on the home soil was a 2-1 defeat to league counterparts, Inter Miami.
The visitors arrive in a sensational form on a five-match unbeaten streak to kickstart their league cup campaign. They are currently the league leaders on the Apertura log with just a goal conceded and have been unbeaten since the start of the season. They are coming off a disappointing 1-1 stalemate against Toluca.
The two teams first meeting came in this competition’s round of 32 last year, the game went goalless at full time before Charlotte advanced on penalties shootout to the next round.
Junior Urso is expected to remain sidelined for the host due to an ankle injury, so Patrick Agyemang who is the club’s top scorer with seven MLS goals, will be the go-to man in terms of goals once more while Cruz Arul will be with a nearly fit squad.
Considering Cruz Arul solid form on the road with an unbeaten record so far, we consider them a slim favorite heading into this match up.
Charlotte has scored in four of his past five matches, and also conceded within that stretch, this tie is critical to avoiding elimination so we expect both teams to put on a hard-fought effort as well, thus we are backing both teams to score.
