Our prediction is: Charleston Battery to win the 1st half
Charleston Battery is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.
It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Pittsburgh Riverhounds a bit of a scare in the early going.
That is why we recommend taking Charleston Battery to win the first half.
