Charlotte vs Austin Prediction

All six of Charlotte's wins have come at home this season, so they are strong favourites to win this match. Austin have two wins in their last three away games, so they might be hopeful of a positive outcome here.

Both teams will be gunning to leave a good account of themselves in their first meeting, so it's expected to be a close match. Taking Charlotte's home form and Austin's decent goal-scoring record this term into consideration, a low-scoring draw could ensue.
