With a goals against average of 1.11 and a save percentage that rounds to 74%, Charleston clearly allows the opponent to score more often than Wilmington, with a goals against average of 0.88 and a save percents of 81%. That being said, the Battery also scores significantly more than the Hammerheads, boasting 13 goals scored to the seven goals the Hammerheads have scored. Wilmington Hammerheads FC have conceded and scored the same number of goals.
As can be seen from these statistics, both teams have opposite styles of play. Who will prevail tomorrow?

Romario Williams, Ricky Garbanzo, Dante Marini, and Chris Tsonis all scored for Charleston. The Battery played to a 2-2 draw by the end of extra time but later lost in penalties. Despite securing victory, The Villages SC have been disqualified for fielding ineligible players, so Charleston will advance to round three.
Charleston fielded nine players who have appeared in at least 7/9 matches during the USL regular season. The Hammerheads squad included eight players who have played in at least 6/8 matches. With a large number of regular starters in both club's lineups, it will be interesting to see how the unusual Wednesday matches factor into each coach's lineup decisions this weekend.
