Charlotte FC vs Nashville SC Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | MLS

Both sides suffered a defeat in the last match.

Charlotte FC are set to take on Nashville SC in Match day seven of the MLS 2025 season at the Bank of America. Both sides will be aiming to return to winning ways after suffering a defeat in the last match. 

Charlotte FC have made a good start to the new season as they occupy fifth spot in the Eastern Conference MLS table. Dean Smith’s side have registered three wins, one draw, and lost twice in the starting three matches. In the last match, they suffered a 2-0 defeat against Colorado, where they were second best in every department. 

Nashville SC have also made a similar start in the new season as their opponents, gathering ten points from the starting six matches. They have so far secured three wins, one draw, and lost twice in the opening stages. In the last match, they were defeated by Cincinnati, who struck the winner at the death after the score was 1-1 in injury time, which will surely disappoint them.
