Charlotte vs Dallas prediction, odds and how to watch

Charlotte came to Montréal, competed harder when it mattered, and took three points. CF Montréal had more of everything except what counts: the result.

Dallas took all three points at Minnesota United, winning 2-1 through goals from Kelvin Yeboah and Santiago Moreno, despite the hosts creating far more and missing four big chances.

Charlotte beat Atlanta United 2-0 in MLS, with Idan Toklomati and Liel Abada scoring either side of half-time to down a home side that had plenty of the ball but created precisely nothing with it.

Houston Dynamo finished with ten men but kept Charlotte at bay in a scrappy, card-riddled goalless draw that left the home side frustrated despite outshooting their visitors two to one.

Dallas put five past Sporting KC at home in a chaotic, open affair that told you everything about where both sides are right now. Both teams scored, both teams gave the ball away, and only one team had the desire to defend properly.

Charlotte head into Sunday's MLS clash unbeaten in their last five matches, but Dallas arrive in form too and carrying a habit of scoring goals at both ends. Something has to give.

Dallas host Los Angeles FC on Sunday night in a fixture that tells you plenty about where both clubs are right now. Neither team is in the form they need. Someone has to take three points.

Charlotte host Chicago Fire on Saturday night carrying a three-win run but knowing their only previous meeting this season ended in defeat. Chicago arrive unbeaten in five and with a point to prove.
