With a game in hand, Montreal is expected to win this vital game against Charlotte and extend their lead in the table by 6 points clear.

Total games: 1
Montreal: 1
Charlotte: 0
Draw: 0
Montreal is playing great offensive football as the number of their scored goals in the MLS (28) reflects that, however, they have conceded 27 goals. Montreal is the best offensive team but at the same time the second worst defensive team in the league. In order to compete at higher levels and take an advanced spot in the play-off standings, Montreal should balance more their strategy and focus on the defensive end in order to increase their goal difference positively. Montreal has won only 2 games in their last 5 and is eager to get this vital game against Charlotte.
On the other hand, Charlotte who has located only 2 ladders below Montreal also seeks the points to at least hold on to their current position and join the play-offs. Charlotte is unbeaten in their last 2 games with a win against the Red Bulls and a draw result against Columbus. They match their league points with Cincinnati but with one more game and Charlotte will try their best to grab at least a draw against a difficult opponent playing in Canada.
Considering both teams’ offensive performance and the defensive problems especially Montreal’s we expect both of them to have the chance to score in the game.
With the top scorer of Montreal sidelined in his next game, we expect Quioto to be the man responsible and help his team to win this vital game by scoring or assisting.
Montreal will have 3 players sidelined against Charlotte. Mihailovic with an ankle injury, Toye with a shoulder injury and Giraldo with a hamstring injury.
On the other hand, Charlotte’s list of injuries includes Armour with a knee injury, Hegardt with a meniscus injury, Sisniega with a concussion, and Mello with a foot injury.
Montreal: Breza, Corbo, Camacho, Waterman, Brault, Wanyama, Piette, Choiniere, Quioto, Miljevic, Kamara.
Charlotte: Kahlina, Afful, Corujo, Walkes, Mora, Bronico, Gaines, Ortiz, Bender, Shinyashiki, Rios.
