Toronto vs Charlotte FC Prediction: Second win on the Horizon, finally!

Toronto could have wished for a better start than what they have experienced so far in the new campaign. They have recorded just 1 win in 5 matches this season. After losing the first match to DC United, they played 2 draws, then 1 win and then a draw in their last match against San Jose Earthquakes. Their opponents Charlotte have had an even worse experience, taking just 1 win, 3 losses and 1 draw in their opening 5 matches of the season. Toronto welcome Charlotte to the BMO Field for round 6 and both teams will be aiming for a positive result from this match.

Toronto grabbed their first win in their 4th game against Inter Miami CF, and their other matches ended in 3 draws and 1 loss. Toronto played a 0-0 draw against San Jose Earthquakes last week away from home. Both teams were not at their very best, but Toronto managed to take up more percentage of the possession (54%) than the hosts, and then 2 shots on target and 3 corner kicks. At the end of the game neither side could find the back of the net.

Toronto are currently in 10th position on the eastern conference table, with 6 points from 5 matches. They have a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss, with a goal ratio of 6:5.

Team Streak:- no losses (4), less than 2.5 goals (4/5), both teams scoring (6/8), less than 4.5 cards (10/10), less than 10.5 corners (6/6).

Charlotte are one of the poor teams currently in the league. After a horrible start that saw them lose all 3 opening matches against New England Revolution, Saint Louis City and Orlando City, Charlotte are still yet to record a win in the new campaign. In their last match they played a 1-1 draw with New York Red Bulls at home. Elias Manoel put The Red Bulls ahead in the 43rd minute and Charlotte FC drew level in the 74th minute, after Andres Reyes scored an own goal. Charlotte were dominant in possession, taking over 74%, but had fewer shots on target (1) and 4 corner kicks at the end of 90 minutes.

Charlotte FC now have 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses in their last 5 matches. They are currently ranked 14th in the eastern conference table, with 4 points from 5 matches.

Team Streaks:- without a clean sheet (7), first to concede (5/7), less than 10.5 corners (4/5).

Charlotte and Toronto have only met twice before now, and Toronto won both meetings last year by 4-0 and 2-0.

For clubs struggling like Toronto, if they must survive, they should be picking up points from worse teams like Charlotte. Current form and head to head record shows Toronto are in fact the best pick. Playing at home is also an added advantage for them. And for Charlotte, their best tactics will be to protect their goal and try to snatch an opportunity or two.
