The New York Red Bulls will host Charlotte FC at the Red Bull Arena in an exciting Major League Soccer (MLS) clash on Wednesday.

The match is set to be a compelling encounter, with both teams aiming to secure crucial points in their respective campaigns.

New York Red Bulls Form

The New York Red Bulls have had a strong season, particularly at home. They are one of just three MLS sides that remain unbeaten on home turf this season.

However, their recent form has seen some fluctuations. After a commendable 4-2 victory against the New England Revolution, they followed up with a 4-1 thrashing of DC United.

Unfortunately, their three-match unbeaten run in the Hudson River Derby ended with a narrow 2-1 loss to New York City FC.

Charlotte FC Form

Charlotte FC comes into this match with a mixed bag of results.

They recently played out a goalless draw with Philadelphia Union, marking their second consecutive draw this season.

Prior to this, they enjoyed a three-match winning streak, with victories over Portland Timbers, Nashville, and Chicago Fire.

However, Charlotte has struggled on the road this season, winning only one of their six away games.
