Saturday evening will see Charlotte FC wrap up their three-game road trip with a date with Nashville SC at GEODIS Park. This will be the fourth time ever that these sides have kicked off against each other. In the head-to-head department, each side has been victorious once, and on one occasion the points were shared.
Known for their stout defence since their inception into MLS, last weekend Nashville SC played in a barnburner of a match. The Coyotes coughed up a two-goal lead at home and let the LA Galaxy back into the game finishing in a 2-2 draw. Nashville still maintains its unbeaten streak to start 2024, albeit collecting three draws in a row.
Meanwhile, Charlotte FC was determined to leave BMO Field with a result on the road. For 79 minutes the Crowns carried the pace of play. One minute later a moment of brilliance from Lorenzo Insigne dashed the hopes of Charlotte carrying their unbeaten run to three matches.
Here, we will break down the betting odds and share our favourite picks for Nashville vs. Charlotte.

Between domestic and CONCACAF Champions Cup play, Nashville SC has been one of the busier clubs in MLS participating in six competitive matches since February 22nd. Though Nashville hasn’t lost in six attempts in 2024, the club has only picked up maximum points once in their last five. Dating back to last season, GEODIS Park has been unkind to the hometown heroes, only accumulating one victory in their last 10.
The 2022 MLS Golden Boot winner, Hany Mukhtar has only appeared in 19 minutes of action in MLS this campaign. The two-time MLS All-Star is such a vital piece to this Nashville franchise. Mukhtar has racked up 58 goals and tallied 38 assists in 113 regular-season matches.
Punching above his weight, goalkeeper Kristijan Kahlina is coming to the aid of Charlotte FC, helping them remain competitive in their first three contests of the season. The 31-year-old has picked up one clean sheet, which transpired in week one of the competition. Amongst his peers in the net, Kahlina is in the upper half of MLS when it comes to his save percantage, successfully stopping 80 percent of the shots faced toward him.
Representing his home native country of Finland with 66 international caps under his belt, Jere Uronen is quietly underrated on this roster. The fullback is a brick wall in the air, winning 83.3 percent of his aerial duels in 270 minutes of playing time. The 29-year-old in a losing effort last weekend still put together an impressive resume appearing in all 90 minutes. Uronen finished with a passing accuracy of 81 percent going 21-for-26 and missing his only shot towards the target from a free-kick situation.

Nashville will be coming off their Round of 16 midweek tie against Messi and company on Wednesday evening. After drawing Inter Miami in the previous week, look for Nashville to put all its eggs in one basket and try to advance to the Quarter Finals in the Champions Cup. Playing on two days rest, the fatigued legs on Nashville could show like it has on previous occasions. The Boys in Gold have failed to register a win in 2024 following midweek continental play, going zero-for-three.
Charlotte FC will be the fresher side in this clash having a full 6 days off between match day action. The Crowns have shown they are a sturdy bunch and can adapt to any situation they’re faced with. Nashville has only found the back of the net once from open play in domestic play. If Charlotte doesn’t concede a penalty kick, and their rugged back line shows up, they are live underdogs to grab a result on the road, which they happened to accomplish last season in Nashville.
