New England closes its three-game MLS homestand on Saturday night, looking to add to its streak of three consecutive victories over Charlotte FC. The Revolution collected their first point of the 2024 regular season in the club’s most recent league match, a 1-1 draw with Chicago Fire FC at Gillette Stadium on March 23. Midfielder Nacho Gil scored his first New England’s goal in the closing minutes of the first half, marking the Spaniard’s first MLS tally. The match marked Revolution Head Coach Caleb Porter’s 300th regular season match, making him one of six active MLS managers to reach the milestone.
The Revolution swept the season series over the Crowns last season, including a 2-1 victory at Gillette Stadium on Sept. 30 behind goals from Homegrown midfielder Noel Buck and defender Dave Romney, who netted the game winner. New England, 3-1-0 in the all-time series against the 2022 MLS expansion side, has outscored Charlotte FC by a 5-2 margin in the last three encounters. Midfielder Mark-Anthony Kaye has enjoyed success against Charlotte, with a team-high three assists in four career meetings.
