Charlotte Independence are welcoming Hartford Athletic for another important game after their 0-3 result against 34th-placed Swope Park Rangers.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Charlotte Independence form and stats
Overall USL Championship stats at home this season for Charlotte Independence are 5-2-8 (wins-draw-losses). All in all it has been a very rough period for Charlotte Independence who hasn’t won a game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Saint Louis FC, 77 days ago. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Charlotte Independence, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
The Charlotte Independence fans got no joy from their last match, a USL Championship game also here at Matthews Sportsplex: A 0-3 defeat against Swope Park Rangers (placed 34th). Heartbreak before that as Charlotte Independence lost 0-2 at New York RB II's place.
The Charlotte Independence fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 15 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 27 goals have been conceded.
Hartford Athletic form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Hartford Athletic, who have the fewest clean sheets (1) in USL Championship, so far with only 7 USL Championship points returning home. The records show 2-1-13 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Hartford Athletic's last three away games as they have all been lost.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Hartford Athletic, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-4 versus Ottawa Fury (placed 10th). A 0-1 loss hosting Louisville City before that.
Hartford Athletic have scored 18 goals on their travels this season, from 16 away games in the league. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Hartford Athletic's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 44 goals in 16 travels.
