Philadelphia Union v Charlotte : Major League Soccer match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 17th Oct, 19:30 BST, Subaru Park, Chester

Dean Smith is aiming for a vital away win in the Major League Soccer on Saturday evening, as he takes his Charlotte side to the Subaru Park to visit Philadelphia Union and Bradley Carnell. All of the key stats for the tie, including head to heads (H2Hs), predictions and odds across 17 markets are included in this in-depth preview. It's all brought together specifically to help you make the most well-informed bet possible.


Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

In alignment, our prediction and the odds from the bookmakers suggest that this Major League Soccer clash is going to be entertaining, with at least 3 goals to scored in the game. As we don't have an obvious winner here given their latest form, we're going with the statistics and past head-to-head (H2H) records below, both of which point to over 2.5 goals being the best bet here.
