Forward Madison FC (7-5-9, 5th) is set to play its 100th match across all competitions on Wednesday evening as the four-year-old club hosts a struggling North Carolina FC (6-11-3, 10th) side. Madison is fresh off its first win in six matches to challenge for a playoff position as the end of the season nears. For the visitors, though, NCFC has earned just one win in the last 10 matches to see its playoff hopes plummet. That one win for NCFC was against Madison earlier this month thanks to a remarkable Christian Lue Young winner deep into stoppage time.
MAD - Jeremiah Streng: The Finland youth international tallied his first brace for the ‘Mingos, scoring the match-winner in the 65th minute before icing the match with his second in the 82nd against the Hailstorm.
NC - Garrett McLaughlin: McLaughlin became the 16th unique player to record at least 10 goals in a single League One season with his 10th of the season last week against Omaha. The third-year professional is enjoying the most productive season of his career.
