Charlotte host Montreal at the Bank of America Stadium on Saturday in MLS action, looking to pick themselves up from a defeat in their last game. The Crown saw their nine-game winning run end following a 2-0 loss to New York City FC last weekend.
Alonso Martinez netted two penalties, one in each half, to help the Yankees to all three points.
After nearly three months, the North Carolina outfit suffered a league defeat, the 12th of their campaign and slipped to fourth position in the Eastern Conference standings with 53 points from 31 games as Inter Miami climbed above them with a victory of their own.
Now in their penultimate home game of the league phase, Charlotte hope to return to winning ways against bottom-dwellers Montreal. With only five wins and nine draws from 31 games, the Canadian outfit have accrued only 24 points so far and have been eliminated from the race for the playoffs spot.
Trending
Their last two games have resulted in a pair of 2-0 losses against St. Louis and New York Red Bulls at home, but they remain unbeaten in their last two away games - something that gives them hope for this fixture.
