Wake FC face Charlotte Eagles on Friday, May 15 at 1:00 AM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the USL League Two, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.

Wake FC come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 3L in last 5). Charlotte Eagles, meanwhile, arrive out of form (1W 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Wake FC head into this on the back of a defeat, while Charlotte Eagles arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Despite playing at home, Wake FC face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Charlotte Eagles have won 5 of 8 encounters, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Wake FC a slight edge, but Charlotte Eagles are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
