Prediction: 2-1
CF Montreal
Columbus Crew will be aiming to overtake Philadelphia Union in third place in the standings when they take on Montreal on Saturday evening. Columbus want to finish the regular season in style and their home record of 11-4-1 is certainly fuelling fans with optimism ahead of the visit of Montreal. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Colombia forward Cucho, who found the net in a 1-1 draw with Atlanta United, whereas midfielder William Sands misses out with a knee injury.
The Canadian outfit, on the other hand, aim to cement their spot in the playoffs berth, but given their difficulties on the road, away win should not be considered. You should bear in mind that Montreal have already suffered 12 defeats on the road this term. All Aaron Herrera, Orri Thorkelsson, and Jules-Anthony Vilsaint are out of contention through injuries.
