Red Bull New York are preparing to get back into the win column when they enter Bank of America Stadium to take on Charlotte FC. After starting the season 2-0-0, Red Bull New York haven't won either of their last two games with Choupo-Moting rescuing them in the dying moments of the last match. Charlotte FC currently enter the matchup with a single win through their first four games.
Head coach Michael Bradley spoke highly of his two designated players, Emil Forsberg and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting. So far Choupo-Moting has registered a single start with multiple sub appearances with the hot start of young rising star Julian Hall. With the recent praise and late game heroics, will we be seeing more of Choupo-Moting, or will he still remain in his relegated sub role. Kerwin Vargas is the man to watch out for on the home team in this one. He scored in both meetings against Red Bull New York in the 2025 season.
The biggest question mark going into this match for Red Bull New York is the injuries. Michael Bradley said in his press conference that Justin Che will miss at least 4 weeks in what is a heavy blow to an already thin back line. Dylan Nealis is still questionable.
The head-to-head currently favors Red Bull New York, in the last 9 meetings they hold 4 wins, 2 losses, and 3 draws, while holding a 17-11 goal advantage. As for this current matchup, both teams have scored 4 goals, conceded 5 and both their top scorers have scored 3 goals. The current separator is the 2 point lead Red Bull New York hold in the table. The match starts at 7:30 ET Saturday on March 22nd.
