Nashville

Charlotte

Nashville is tied for sixth in goals scored, tied for fifth in goal differential, and ranks 15th in goals conceded. Sam Surridge leads the team with six goals. In their last match, Nashville defeated Chattanooga Red Wolves SC 1-0. They outshot them 15-3 and held 73% of possession. Josh Bauer scored the lone goal in the 18th minute. While their passing accuracy was strong, Nashville needs to improve their shot accuracy, as only three of their 15 shots were on target. With that much possession, they should have won by two or three goals.

Charlotte is tied for eighth in goals scored, tied for fifth in goal differential, and tied for seventh in goals conceded. Pep Biel, Liel Abada, and Wilfried Zaha each lead the team with three goals. In their most recent match, Charlotte defeated North Carolina FC 4-1.

They outshot North Carolina 19-10, with nearly half of those shots on target, and held 68% possession. This was a strong bounce-back performance for Charlotte defensively, and the offense has been trending upward over the past few games.
