Toronto vs Charlotte Preview and Team News
Toronto Team News
What can one expect when two teams, separated by a wide gulf in the league table, take each other on in a weekend fixture in the MLS? Toronto, who have had very little going their way this season, will intend to start afresh when they host Charlotte on Wednesday.
Currently, they are ranked 14th in the Eastern league table, and are on the lookout for ways to move up in the standings. For this game, they will be hampered by injuries to the likes of Deandre Kerr, Kobe Franklin, Nicksoen Gomis, Raoul Petretta and Richie Laryea, who are all unavailable for selection.

Former Napoli man Lorenzo Insigne is expected to ply his trade in the number ’10’ position while fellow Italian Federico Bernardeschi operates up top. Toronto like to make use of their wings, with their wingbacks usually running up and down the flanks in search of attacking propositions.
Toronto predicted lineup vs Charlotte (3-4-1-2): Johnson; Wingo, Monlouis, Long; Stefanovic, Flores, Longstaff, Osorio; Insigne; Bernardeschi, Brynhildsen.
Charlotte Team News
Charlotte, who are currently ranked eighth in the league table, will feel themselves better placed than their opponents, but travelling away from home is never an easy task.
They will have to make do without the services of many players in this game, which includes Brandon Cambridge, Idan Toklomati, Jahlane Forbes, Nathan Byrne, Nimfasha Berchimas, Souleyman Doumbia, and Tim Ream.
Charlotte’s manager, Dean Smith, is known for his aggressive tactics, and asks his players for work-rate both on and off the ball.

Smith usually likes to play with a 4-3-3 formation in which fullbacks Marshall-Rutty and Scardina often invert themselves and find passes that their midfielders then convert into weighted balls in the attacking third.
A lot of emphasis is put on quick passing since this allows Charlotte to move forward while still in formation and put their opposition under pressure. Vargas and Zaha will have important roles to play in the attacking third.
Charlotte predicted lineup vs Toronto (4-3-3): Kahlina; Scardina, Malanda, Privett, Marshall-Rutty; Biel, Westwood, Bronico; Vargas, Agyemang, Zaha.
Toronto vs Charlotte Prediction
- Pick: Charlotte to win or draw
- Odds: -208 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Toronto vs Charlotte
Charlotte, despite being the away team, will be the one to watch out for in this game. We also think that they will have an advantage over their opponents, and can be expected to either win or draw this match.
Charlotte have won or drawn three out of the last four matches played between the teams, and we expect this good run of form to continue.
They are also higher ranked than Toronto in the league table, which means that their season is going much better than their opponents’ is. When these teams last met each other, in April 2024, Charlotte beat Toronto 3-2.
Toronto vs Charlotte Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Toronto total over 1
- Odds: -217 (20Bet)
We predict a Toronto total of over 1 goal in this game. They have quite a few attractive players in their lineup who can make hay when the sun shines in the final third, especially Bernardeschi and Insigne. The former, who missed out on their last game due to the accumulation of too many yellow cards, will be hungry to add to his tally.
Toronto have scored a total of over one goal in five out of their last five matches against Charlotte, and we expect them to continue this trend, especially when they are at home. At home, they have scored a total of over one goal in two out of the last three games they have contested against Charlotte.
