Charlotte FC Hosts Atlanta United in Home Opener

Charlotte FC is set to welcome Atlanta United for their home opener on March 1, following a 2-2 draw against the Seattle Sounders in their season opener. Star winger Wilfried Zaha, who missed the previous match due to a family commitment, is anticipated to make his debut for Charlotte. Atlanta United comes into the match with momentum after a 3-2 victory over CF Montréal, driven by two goals from their record signing, Emmanuel Latte Lath. The match will take place at Bank of America Stadium, where attendance is expected to reach around 50,000, although it may fall short of previous home opener records. Both teams are eager for a strong performance, with Charlotte looking to secure their first win of the season against their rivals. The match promises to be a closely contested derby, with heightened anticipation from both fan bases.
