Carolina Core FC returns to Truist Point Stadium this Saturday for a high-stakes rivalry clash against Crown Legacy FC. With momentum building after a promising road performance in Orlando, the Foxes now face their biggest test of the season against the Eastern Conference leader.

1 — Breaking New Ground

The Core head into this match-up looking to build on their previous 2-2 draw against Crown Legacy FC earlier this season. The Foxes put up a strong performance in their last meeting, gaining two points from the shootout win. With confidence from that result and another chance to face the league leaders, they will be aiming to capitalize on the opportunity to turn the draw into a victory, and secure all three points at home.

15 — The First Strike

Antonio Pineda has been a driving force behind the Foxes’ recent success, scoring in back-to-back matches while also contributing an assist. His ability to create chances and finish opportunities has made him a consistent threat in the attacking third. As his confidence continues to grow, Pineda steadily emerges as a key player and one, opponents will need to keep a close eye on.

4 — Leading the Charge

Arnaud Tattevin continues to set the pace for Carolina Core FC's attack with a team-leading four goals this season. His relentless work rate, aggressive style of play, and ability to impact matches from the opening whistle have made him a vital piece of the Foxes' offense. As the Core enter the second half of the season, Tattevin will look to continue in his strong form and add to his impressive scoring tally.

47 — The Last Line of Defense

Crown Legacy enters the weekend as one of the league's most potent attacking sides, leading the Eastern Conference with 37 goals scored this season. Standing in their way is goalkeeper Nick Holliday, whose 47 saves rank among the league leaders. Time and time again, Holliday has delivered in key moments, providing a steady presence between the posts and giving the Foxes confidence against even the most dangerous attacks.
