Charlotte FC vs Philadelphia Union Prediction: The Away Team are Back in Business

Philadelphia Union travel to the Bank of America Stadium to face Charlotte FC. Charlotte FC have managed to grab two wins in their last 2 games after a long period of poor results and Philadelphia Union were pegged to a 0-0 draw against Atlanta United. But before that, they have won 5 games in a row. The last match between these two ended in a 2-0 win for Philadelphia Union. Philadelphia Union started the game on the right foot, scoring in the first 4 minutes and then they added a second in the 46th minute. The visitors created no real goal scoring chances and the hosts were relaxed. Charlotte however controlled possessions but Philadelphia had more shots on targets. 

H/A Form: WWLLL

Home Form: WLLLW

Charlotte FC are not the brightest teams in the division but surprisingly they have grabbed two wins in their last 2 matches. In 5 matches, Charlotte FC have 2 wins and 3 losses. In the 3-2 win against Chicago Fire, Charlotte were on the wrong side of the scoreline in the first half. They were 2-0 down into the break, but they pulled a dramatic comeback in the second half. Karol Swiderski was first to score for Charlotte FC and then Nuno Santos drew both teams level. Karol Swiderski grabbed a dying minute goal to help the visitors win the match.

Christian Fuchs picked up a red card and would be unavailable for this match. Adam Armour and Vinicius Mello are also unavailable due to injuries.

H/A Form: DWWWW

Away Form: DWWLL

Philadelphia Union are currently the best team in the Eastern Conference. They sit at the top spot with 64 points after 32 top flight games. Philadelphia Union have 4 wins in their last 5 games. Last time out, they played a 0-0 draw against Atlanta United. Philadelphia Union were abysmal in that match as they failed to turn up, registering no shots on target and taking just 40% of the possession. The hosts registered as much as 6 shots on target, forcing the Philadelphia Union goalkeeper to make 5 vital saves to keep his team in the game. Hopefully Philadelphia Union have taken the time off to evaluate and re-group. 

No players are currently reported injured or suspended.

Philadelphia Union and Charlotte FC have played just 1 match against each other and Philadelphia Union won that match 2-0. 

Both teams have taken a few days off to rest and refresh following the international break. This could mean Philadelphia Union will turn up in this match looking sharp and back to their best. Charlotte FC have also found their form in recent weeks but I don't see them getting a win in this game.
