Leagues Cup betting and spectator preview: Dallas and Charlotte meet at Toyota Stadium to measure strength and learn who makes it to the next stage.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Dallas form and stats
The home team returns to Toyota Stadium after drawing with Seattle Sounders on their last time out; the game ended 1-1. The forward Kamungo was declared "man of the match" for Dallas with the rating of 7.42/10. Kamungo scored one goal.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Colorado Rapids (1-2).The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Dallas have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 26 games) they have won 11 times, drawn 10 and lost 5.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Leagues Cup game versus Necaxa in only four days. This game is also played here at Toyota Stadium.
Charlotte form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Charlotte so far with only 12 points returning home. The records show 3-3-6 (win-draw-lose).
Charlotte play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-2 to Montreal Impact. The attacker Jóźwiak got a match rating of 7.0 in that game. Jóźwiak hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.
A draw for Charlotte before that, at their own venue hosting Cincinnati (2-2).We have checked recent matches where Charlotte have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 10 games were 3 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Charlotte have scored 15 goals in 12 league games away. Charlotte's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 23 goals from these trips.
