Charlotte FC vs DC United – With a win on Wednesday against Charlotte FC at Bank of America Stadium, DC United can move up from last place in the Eastern Conference of Major League Soccer.

The Crown’s match against the Columbus Crew was postponed due to inclement weather, while the Black and Red waited until the last minutes of regulation and overtime to score against Orlando City, giving Wayne Rooney his first managerial triumph.

After surrendering four goals in the first half against Toronto and losing 4-0, and then three goals in the final 30 minutes against Inter Miami and losing 3-2, Charlotte was eliminated from playoff contention due to a string of terrible halves.

While they are now three points behind FC Cincinnati with a game in hand, they are still in the hunt for a playoff position. Christian Lattanzio’s men will play their next two games at home, where they have picked up 21 of their 26 points so far this year.

They have exploited the massive Bank of America Stadium to their advantage, allowing one goal or less on nine occasions while posting four clean sheets, making the stadium something of a 12th man.

In their first season together, this squad has struggled to find the back of the net, scoring the second-fewest goals in Major League Soccer (25). Charlotte has only won once on the road this year, but they have come close several times. They have lost six away games by a single goal.

Charlotte FC vs DC United – Betting Analysis

DC became the 10th team in league history to win after trailing in injury time, thanks in large part to the new coach bump. The result concluded a tough stretch for Wayne Rooney’s squad, who had gone winless in its previous five matches across all competitions.

While victories are always welcome, the Englishman must address his team’s defensive issues if they are to avoid finishing in last place in the league. They have conceded 44 goals so far this season, the second-most in the league, and have let up 20 goals in their last six games.

The Black and Red have given up goals within the first 15 minutes in four of their previous five MLS games, leaving them vulnerable at the back as a result of their increased aggression.

Taxiarchis Fountas, their dynamic Greek DP who has scored more than a third of the team’s goals this season, has been at the centre of most of their attacking plays.

Three upcoming games against Eastern Conference foes are crucial for their postseason hopes (Charlotte, the New York Red Bulls and the New England Revolution).
