New York City to Win
Seeing as New York City lost only three games since the start of the season while Charlotte won only two, we believe our Charlotte vs New York City predictions have a massive chance of success. The bookies say there’s a narrow 2.0% gap between the two teams’ win probabilities but we fancy the visitors’ chances as their run this season is quite impressive.
Meanwhile, with 10 goals scored and 19 conceded, Charlotte’s issues are starting to pile up. Coach Christian Lattanzio must swiftly address the elephant in the room but we highly doubt he’ll be able to motivate his boys for something more than a prestigious loss against much-admired New York City.
Over 1.5 New York City Goals
Sure, coach Nick Cushing’s boys failed to produce anything of value versus Toronto last week as the result on the scoreboard was 1-0 in favor of Bob Bradley’s side but we still believe the result was a fluke. New York City are sturdier than that.
Charlotte won both games last year so the 38-year-old up-and-coming manager will be eager to get revenge over Christian Lattanzio. New York City did not get to 5th place in the Eastern Conference by accident. The team managed to score 12 goals in the first 10 MLS fixtures.

Charlotte odds: +152 – 38.0%
Draw odds: +240 – 26.0%
New York City odds: +177 – 36.0%
As you can clearly see from the Charlotte vs New York City odds, the visitors are the underdog in this race at +177 (36.0%) while Charlotte are BetMGM’s expected winners with a 38.0% win probability. However, we’d like to beat the odds this week and that’s why we predict over 1.5 New York City goals at +120 (47.4%).
Charlotte vs New York City Lineups & Team News
Charlotte
Coach Christian Lattanzio was fuming after last week’s MLS brawl. The match at Audi Field against local DC United ended catastrophically for Charlotte who are clearly not enjoying their second season in MLS. The 3-0 victory was perhaps the least Charlotte could’ve gotten away with considering coach Wayne Rooney’s boys were the dominant force on the pitch. We certainly took this lackluster display under consideration for our Charlotte vs New York City predictions.
Predicted lineup – Marks (GK), Afful, Jones, Malanda, Byrne, Swiderski, Westwood, Bronico, Vargas, Copetti & Gaines
New York City
With four victories, three draws, and three league losses, New York City are sitting comfortably in 5th position in the Eastern Conference with 15 points to their name. Sure, matchday 10 was a waste as Toronto pipped coach Nick Cushing’s boys 1-0 but we believe that loss was a fluke and it’s highly unlikely that New York City will lose to Charlotte.
Predicted lineup – Barraza (GK), O’Toole, Chanot, Martins, Illenic, Sands, Parks, T. M, Ledezma, Pellegrini & Rodriguez
Starting Lineups

Player to Watch: Santiago Rodriguez
Coach Nick Cushing should follow the credo that if something isn’t broken, you don’t fix it. All he has to do is give Santiago Rodriguez a chance in the starting 11. We are sure that’s exactly what the case on Sunday will be as Rodriguez is the top finisher on New York City’s roster.
With three goals and an assist in the 2023 MLS race, Santiago Rodriguez is proving his worth with each passing day. He was nowhere to be seen last week so that’s all the more reason for us to believe he’ll be the most interesting player to watch at the Bank of America Stadium.
