D.C. United has been struggling to secure wins recently, with three draws and one loss in their last five games, excluding their U.S. Open Cup wins; their next match is against New York Red Bulls in the MLS, a team they defeated earlier in the season. Charlotte FC's form is even worse, losing four of their last five matches, excluding their U.S. Open Cup win, and are set to face Columbus Crew in their next MLS fixture, a team that recently defeated them. Looking at previous encounters, D.C. United and Charlotte FC have had mixed results, with Charlotte FC winning their most recent match in October 2024 with 3-0. This game follows a similar pattern, to previous games where one of the teams has a goal streak of zero goals for several matches and in the U.S. Open Cup tournament finds its goal form.
