Montreal CF
Thursday’s football game at TQL Stadium pits together Cincinnati and Montreal, the two top-table sides. Cincinnati aim to overtake New England Revolution in top position and a triumph over Montreal will see them keep their 100% record at home intact. Defender Santiago Arias remains on the sidelines with a thigh injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
The Canadians, on the other hand, are eyeing their fifth consecutive league win. Montreal did well to keep a clean sheet in each of their last four MLS games, but preventing Cincinnati from scoring at TQL Stadium is easier said than done. Lassi Lappalainen is pushing for a start, while all Toye, Vilsaint, Piette, and Pantemis remain on the sidelines with injuries. In their last encounter in the Major League Soccer Montreal defeated Cincinnati 4-3, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Team (Montreal CF):
Club de Foot Montréal is a Canadian soccer team, but they compete in Major League Soccer. They are a member of the Eastern Conference and they have been participating in the major league since 2012. Montreal welcome their opponents at Saputo Stadium and the capacity of the club’s home ground is 20.801.
The construction of the stadium cost CA$17 million and the venue was opened on May 18, 2008. The Saputo family invested $7.5 million in the construction of the stadium and, as a result, the venue was named Saputo Stadium. Montreal CF did remarkably well to make it to the CONCACAF Champions League final in the 2014/2015 season, but Mexican team America proved to be a big catch for the Canadian outfit in the title game.
Speaking of the Canadian championship, the Impact won their third domestic trophy in 2014, with the team beating Toronto FC in the final of the tournament. Montreal Impact play their home matches in blue and black shirts and black shorts, while the colour of their away kit is white.
