New York City vs Charlotte Pick and Prediction
Right now, New York languishes in 11th place in the current Eastern Conference MLS standings. Charlotte is level on points but above City on goal difference.
These two MLS teams played out a five-goal thriller in May’s meeting at the Bank of America Stadium in North Carolina, with Charlotte picking up a 3-2 home win.
However, New York could get revenge in midweek. Cushing’s troops are looking to build on the excellent Montreal win, and you can get the decent MLS odds of +240 for the Pigeons to win to nil again on Wednesday.
Also, have a wager on New York to be winning at half-time and full-time at +200.
