Winless in seven games across all competitions, Toronto FC will try to get back on track when it plays away to Charlotte FC on Saturday (7:30 p.m. ET/TSN & Apple TV).  

TFC (3-4-5) dropped to tenth in the Eastern Conference following last Saturday's 4-2 home loss to Lionel Messi and Inter Miami, and they haven't recorded a win since April 4. 

This weekend's visit to Bank of America Stadium is the first of two contests during the regular season between Toronto and Charlotte. They'll meet again on Aug. 19 at BMO Field.
