CF Montréal and Cincinnati meet in Major League Soccer, with the hosts sitting 15th in the table on 21 points from 26 matches, while the visitors are 9th with 33 points from 25 matches. The hosts lost their most recent league game, while the visitors are searching for the rhythm to get back to their own standards. CF Montréal have won only 5 of 26 matches this season, and their defence is a clear problem, having already conceded 53 goals. Their recent league form was a run of defeats before they managed a win in the Canadian Championship. As for Cincinnati, although they have not won in 5 matches, they drew 3 of those, and their attack still scores regularly, especially in the most recent meeting, which Cincinnati won 4-3. According to the expected line-ups, CF Montréal are likely to set up in a 4-2-3-1 with Samuel Piette controlling the tempo in midfield alongside Victor Loturi, and Daniel Armando Rios Calderon as the centre-forward. Cincinnati are expected to line up in a 3-4-3 with Kevin Denkey and Evander da Silva Ferreira as the finishers up front. If the hosts score first, the game could open up into an entertaining exchange, but if the visitors score first, the hosts, who often concede late goals, may have to push forward and concede more.
