Our prediction for this MLS match:
Buoyed by a thrilling 4-0 win over Minnesota United, CF Montreal will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Nashville on Thursday morning. The Canadian outfit want to stay in the playoffs berth, but they will have a big fish to fry in the midweek clash. Both Rommel Quioto and Samuel Piette remain in the treatment room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Meanwhile, the visitors aim to build on a 3-1 win over St Louis City. Nashville have a chance to melt Cincinnati’s advantage to only two points, but beating Montreal at Saputo Stadium is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. As for the away team, both Nick DePuy and Lukas MacNaughton are out of contention through injuries.
