Toronto FC's recent stretch of nine consecutive home games saw the club drop a lot of valuable points and leak goals at an alarming rate.  

The Reds have gone nine straight matches without a clean sheet and have given up 24 goals through their first 12 contests of the campaign – that’s more than half of the 44 goals they conceded in 34 matches last year.   

With just one shutout so far during the 2026 campaign – a 1-0 road win over FC Cincinnati on March 8 – Toronto is in desperate need of a clean sheet this weekend. 

Here’s what you need to know about Saturday's match between Toronto and Charlotte FC at Bank of America Stadium (7:30 p.m. ET/TSN & Apple TV).
