Charlotte vs Cruz Azul match preview
Who will reach the Leagues Cup last 16 in this wide-open tie?
Charlotte FC are currently unbeaten in this season’s competition, accumulating five points in the group stages, thereby topping their section.
First, Christian Lattanzio’s team came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with FC Dallas, equalising in the 97th minute before winning the subsequent shootout, with Queen City then smashing Club Necaxa 4-1 on Saturday.
Brandt Bronico, Karol Świderski, Scott Arfield and Patrick Agyemang all on target in North Carolina.
So, will Charlotte’s excellent form continue in the knockout stages?
Cruz Azul meantime were beaten 2-1 by Inter Miami in their group opener, on the wrong end of some Messi magic, before sneaking through by defeating Atlanta United on penalties at the weekend.
Due to a Beyoncé concert, yes really, this match will not take place at Charlotte’s usual home Bank of America Stadium, instead taking place at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, a mere 1,085 miles west of Charlotte.
Thus, in front of a largely pro-Cruz Azul support, who will reach the Leagues Cup round of 16, where Pachuca or Houston Dynamo await?
