New York City FC and Charlotte clash on Wednesday, in the only MLS game of the night. These two East Conference rivals have the same number of points and are barely outside the playoff and the play-in zone. So this matchup isn’t worth three but six points because they are direct rivals for the postseason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Citizens haven’t lost in the previous six games, but until last weekend’s victory on the road in Montreal, they had astonishing five ties in a row. We have to admit that doesn’t happen often in the MLS. NYC’s games are inefficient, and during this defeatless streak, only one contest saw three or more goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
City is solid at home overall, having four wins, three ties, and two losses with a goal difference of 13-12. However, the Citizens haven\u2019t triumphed in Big Apple for the last four games, having two losses and two ties. They kept a clean sheet only on two occasions in the recent ten contests at the Yankee Stadium. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
