My Prediction
Charlotte FC by 2Ah, the sweet battle betwixt Sporting Kansas City and Charlotte FC, always a classic row. Let's break this down. Between the sticks, Sporting Kansas has the young buck, John Pulskamp, who's made a nifty 17 saves this season. As for Charlotte FC, they're sporting the ever-reliable David Bingham (9 saves) and Kristijan Kahlina (6 saves). With such seasoned sentinels lying in wait, offense will need to dial up the creativity here.
In the sea of players, some float higher up. For Charlotte FC, you've got Wilfried Zaha, not only showing off with that 85.8 accurate pass % but also secured himself a goal. Don't count out his comrade Patrick Agyemang, who's got 3 goals stashed in his boots. Pep Biel also seems to be having fun, with two goals to his name. These fellas aren't here for the halftime orange slices, that's for sure.
On the other side of the stadium, Sporting Kansas City proudly presents Dejan Joveljić, their leading light with 4 goals. Jansen Miller and Manu García also deserve some limelight with their impressive passing accuracies. If they can transform possessive play into goal-worthy execution, they might get to upload a few victory selfies tonight.
Peek a boo at their regular season records, Charlotte FC's dance card of 8 wins, 1 draw, and 9 losses isn't too shabby. But Sporting Kansas City seems to be suffering from the blues with 4 wins, 4 draws, and 10 losses. Not the best numbers to call your parents about, are they?
Charlotte's recent performance screams rollercoaster ride, highs aren't too high, lows aren't too low. But Sporting Kansas City's been a tad unsuccessful in keeping the ball out of the net lately, that's sure to have their fans cracking open the stress tabs.
After weighing the combatants, with no bias or the least bit obligation to my bookie, I'd punt for Charlotte FC. The form, the stats, and the ability to actually win games pushes them on top.
