Montreal Impact
Toronto play host to Montreal Impact at their BMO Field in what is very important game for the title holders. The Reds made a very slow start to the season, but a win over Montreal will see them keep their hopes of booking their place in the play-offs alive. Toronto are on a three-game winless run in the Major League Soccer and seeing that key attacker Jozy Altidore remains on the sidelines, home win should not be considered. Nonetheless, it has to be noted that Sebastian Giovinco is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming from the bench in a 1-1 draw with San Jose at the weekend. The Canadian outfit, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Chicago Fire and they managed to get one. Montreal put an end to their four-game winless run in MLS and, taking everything into account, they are capable of grabbing something from the Toronto clash.
