Charlotte vs New England Prediction and Betting Tips

Charlotte host New England Revolution at the Bank of America Stadium on Saturday in the MLS, looking for their first-ever top-flight win.

The North Carolina outfit have lost their first three games thus far. DC United served them a baptism of fire on the opening day with a 3-0 vanquish. Charlotte then lost 1-0 and 2-1 to LA Galaxy and Atlanta United, respectively. They sit second from bottom in the Eastern Conference standings and are one of only two teams to have lost all games so far.

New England, meanwhile, haven't enjoyed the best of starts either, picking up just four points from their opening three games. Following a pulsating 2-2 draw with Portland on the opening weekend, they narrowly overcame FC Dallas 1-0 at home. However, their unbeaten start was ended by Real Salt Lake with a 3-2 defeat.

The Revs squandered a 3-0 first-leg lead, losing 3-0 to Pumas UNAM and 4-3 on penalties to bow out of the CONCACAF Champions League. Bruce Arena's team will be eager to return to winning ways against Charlotte.
