Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Under 3.5 goals means that there will be no more than 3 goals scored by Charlotte and Chicago combined during 90 minutes. Recent form stats and historical head-to-head (H2H) performances have led us to this conclusion, and our predictive algorithm suggests there's a 75% chance of it being right on the money. The best price available at present on under 3.5 goals is 1.44.
