Score Prediction
Looking at their recent results, Charlotte FC should have a calm, easy game. However, in soccer, that’s not always the case, and CF Montreal can change from the horrible picture they are leaving in the Eastern Conference.
CF Montreal currently sits at the bottom of the standings, while Charlotte FC has established itself as one of the Eastern Conference's top contenders, bolstered by Saint-Maximin's dynamic presence on the wing. After suffering a 7-1 defeat to Inter Miami and a 2-0 loss to the Philadelphia Union, the Impact are desperate to get back on track.
The Crown needs to improve on the scoreboard, as they have tied more games than they should have.
Score prediction: CF Montreal 1-3 Charlotte FC
