Charlotte FC are flying right now, unbeaten in six league games (5W, 1D) and winners of five straight. Their latest win came away at Cincinnati thanks to Wilfried Zaha’s late strike, continuing his scoring form. Charlotte have turned the Bank of America Stadium into a fortress, taking 13 of the last 15 points available at home. Sitting seventh in the East with 41 points, Dean Smith’s side are firmly in playoff contention and will look to extend their hot streak.
Betting On Real Salt Lake
- Spread: +1.0
- Moneyline: 4.20
- Over/Under: Under 2.5
Real Salt Lake return to league play in shaky form. They suffered a 2-1 loss to the New York Red Bulls last weekend after a decent US Open Cup campaign. In MLS, they’ve been inconsistent, with just nine wins in 25 matches (9W, 12L, 4D). Pablo Mastroeni’s men sit 10th in the West on 31 points, one off the playoff spots, but their away form has been poor, making this trip to Charlotte a tough assignment.
MatchPlug Prediction For Charlotte FC vs Real Salt Lake
Charlotte are playing their best football of the season and have been dominant at home. With Real Salt Lake struggling to get results on the road, the momentum strongly favors the hosts. Expect Charlotte’s attack, led by Zaha, to make the difference in another statement win.
