Orlando City vs Charlotte Prediction & Betting Tips | 09/11/2024 | Football

Our prediction for this MLS match:

Orlando City

Orlando City

Charlotte

Charlotte

There will be fireworks when Orlando City and Charlotte lock horns at Inter&Co Stadium in a highly-anticipated MLS playoffs clash. Charlotte defeated Orlando City on penalties to tie the series, but they will have a big fish to fry in Saturday’s clash. Defender Jahlane Forbes remains on the sidelines with injury for the visiting team, while midfielder will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. The Lions, on the other hand, are a real force to be reckoned with at home.

As Orlando City have won five of their last five home games, we predict that Charlotte are going to return North Carolina empty-handed. Goalkeeper Mason Stajduhar remains in the recovery room, but the 26-year-old should be the only absentee in the home team. You should bear in mind that Orlando City defeated Charlotte 2-0 at Inter&Co Stadium in the first leg.

Highlighted Team (Orlando City):

Orlando City

Orlando City are a member of the Eastern Conference in Major League Soccer. The Lions have been participating in the major league since 2015 and they host their rivals at Orlando City Stadium. The venue was opened in February, 2017 and the construction of the stadium cost $155 million. Orlando City finished the 2015 MLS season in seventh place in the Eastern Conference and they failed to make it to the play-offs in the 2016 season as well (8th place).

Brazilian ace Kaka is undisputedly the club’s most famous player and the former Real Madrid and Milan man became the highest-paid player in MLS history. His base salary was $6.6 million per year and it has to be noted that the Brazilian superstar found the net on his Orlando City debut against FC Dallas (friendly). Orlando City’s home kit is violet, while they wear white and violet shirts and white socks on the travels. The club’s official mascot is Kingston the Lion.
