The hosts are on a winless run of nine games
CF Montreal started the season in brilliant form collecting seven points in the opening three Major League Soccer matches. Since then, their good form has faded as they are now in the 13th position in the Eastern Conference. With a draw against Nashville, Laurent Courtois’s team ended its four-game losing streak last game.
DC United are in ninth place in the MLS table. Troy Lesesne’s team have failed to maintain consistency so far, leaving them 16 points behind league leaders Inter Miami. In the last six fixtures, they have won two, drawn two and lost two. Last time out, the Black-and-Red played Chicago. They secured a 1-1 draw but were obviously disappointed for not winning the game after taking the lead.

Player to Watch
Mathieu Choiniere (CF Montreal)
It has been apparent that Mathieu Choiniere has become a leader for the CF Montreal in the past few matches, putting in consistent performances for the team in the middle of the park. The fact that he has only scored one goal and assisted another in 14 matches does not vividly emphasize his importance to the team.
Christian Benteke (DC United)
Christian Benteke has been the main man for DC United throughout the past 13 games scoring 11 goals. Benteke can be proud of his performance so far also having scored hat-tricks against New England and Atlanta United. In addition to his physicality and aerial threat, the forward is capable of dominating the opposition unleashing strikes with venom.
