The upcoming MLS fixture between Charlotte FC and Chicago Fire FC is scheduled for Sunday, May 18, 2025. Fans in Italy, Germany, France, and Spain can tune in at 01:30 CEST, while viewers in the UK have a kick-off time of 00:30 BST.
This late-night showdown promises excitement on both ends of the pitch as Charlotte look to bounce back from recent setbacks and Chicago aim to carry momentum from their first home victory of the season.
Comment les deux équipes abordent-elles ce match ?
Charlotte FC’s recent form has been mixed. After enjoying a 10-game unbeaten run across all competitions, they fell 3-1 to Orlando City SC last Wednesday. That result highlighted some defensive frailties and underlined their need to tighten up at the back if they are to climb the Eastern Conference table.
Meanwhile, Chicago Fire FC will head into this match with confidence following their maiden home win of the season. A 2-1 triumph over Atlanta United saw them secure vital three points and halt a winless run at Soldier Field. However, they now face a daunting five-match away schedule, starting with this trip to Charlotte.
Nos prévisions
Given Charlotte’s defensive vulnerabilities and Chicago’s newfound confidence, we anticipate a closely contested game. Both sides have shown they can find the net, but defending remains a concern. Expect a high-intensity opening period as each team looks to assert themselves early on.
Our prediction leans towards a tirage au sort, with both teams sharing the spoils. A 1-1 scoreline seems the most likely outcome, combining Charlotte’s home advantage with Chicago’s attacking threat on the road.
