The Crown have forged a reputation for being difficult to break down at home. Feeding off the energy of a passionate fan base at Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte FC extended their home success last weekend as they shut out New York City FC 2-0.

Charlotte FC is 2-0-1 versus D.C. United at Bank of America Stadium, and The Crown has held D.C. scoreless in all three regular-season home matches.

"We kept a clean sheet last match; we did that because we did the basics well. We got into good positions to defend our box really well. Our reaction to help in dangerous areas was good and gave us confidence going into our next few matches," said Dean Smith in his press conference.

The Crown's dominance is backed by the stats. CLTFC have tallied at least one goal in 14 straight matches across all competitions, including nine multi-goal performances.

Idan Toklomati has scored in three of the last four matches, including the game-winner against New York City FC in the previous match.

Pep Biel stands third in the league for assists at 10 and leads Charlotte in goal contributions at 17. Following his assist against New York City FC, the Spaniard became the Club's single-season leader in goal contributions, surpassing Karol Swiderski, who had 16 in 2022 and 2023.
