Players to Watch

Patrick Agyemang (Charlotte FC)

Patrick Agyemang is back from the national team break and will be a big addition for Charlotte FC in the final third. In 16 MLS appearances this season, the 24-year-old has scored six goals and has bagged one assist. Agyemang has performed well for the Crown.

He will be looking to come up with another top performance here.

Hannes Wolf (New York City FC)

With 13 goal involvements in 20 Major League Soccer games this season, Hannes Wolf has been one of the top players for New York City FC. The 26-year-old Austrian forward has scored five goals in the last four league games for the Pigeons.

From scoring goals for his side and making plays for his fellow teammates, Wolf can be an issue for the opponent’s defence.
