Montreal Impact
There will be fireworks when Vancouver Whitecaps and Montreal Impact face each other in an all-Canadian clash on Thursday morning. Vancouver aim to get their revenge on Montreal for Monday’s 4-2 loss, and, no doubt, the hosts will leave their hearts on the field in the midweek clash. It has to be noted that the Whitecaps forward Lucas Cavallini will have to serve his ban in the Canadian derby.
Montreal Impact are high on confidence ahead of Thursday’s showdown, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Even though talented midfielder Emanuel Fernando Maciel is out of contention through suspension, we believe that they are going to find the net in the midweek game. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score.

Highlighted Team (Montreal Impact):
Montreal Impact is a Canadian soccer team, but they compete in Major League Soccer. The Impact 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 Impact 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.
