Charlotte will continue to be without young Brazilian forward Vinicius Mello following surgery on his left foot, who they will be anxious to get back to full fitness as soon as possible. Joining him on the sidelines will be Chris Hegardt, who remains absent due to a knee injury. Joseph Mora will miss out due to health and safety protocol. Adam Armour also remains out with a knee injury, whilst Yordy Reyna may be back in contention after missing the last couple of games with a lower leg injury. Mason Toye is out with an ongoing abductor issue, so expect Romell Quioto to lead the line. Bjorn Johnsen remains absent due to a foot injury, after missing last week's game with an illness.
