The MLS prepares a David and Goliath story in the Eastern Conference as last-place Montréal hosts second-place Cincinnati.

CF Montréal comes into the game having ended a negative streak with a 3-1 away win over Houston Dynamo.

A similar case for FC Cincinnati, who returned to winning ways with a 0-1 victory over the New England Revolution.

CF Montréal vs. FC Cincinnati Betting Odds and Info

Why Bet on CF Montréal?

It hasn’t been a good season for CF Montréal. With 11 points, they sit at the bottom of the Western Conference and second-to-last in the entire MLS. They have two wins, five draws, and eleven losses.

With just 15 goals scored, they have the worst attack in the league, while their 33 goals conceded make them the fifth-worst defense.

After three losses and two draws in the MLS—plus another defeat in the Canadian Championship—they finally managed a 1-3 win over Houston Dynamo in their last match, thanks to a brace from Prince-Osei Owusu and a goal from Jalen Neal. Owusu is the team’s top scorer with six goals and two assists, directly involved in over 50% of the team’s goals.

They are the worst home team in the league, and their fans have yet to celebrate a victory at Saputo Stadium. They have three draws and four losses, and in their last home match, they fell 3-0 to New England.

Forward Giacomo Vrioni, who missed the last match due to suspension, suffered an injury in training and will not be available this Wednesday. Additionally, up to 10 more players are questionable due to injuries.

Why Bet on FC Cincinnati?

Quite the opposite for Cincinnati. With 33 points, they sit second in the Eastern Conference, four points behind Philadelphia Union. They have 10 wins, three draws, and five losses. As usual, they are not a high-scoring team, with only 26 goals scored, though the 24 goals conceded is a surprising figure.

They went through a rough patch with two draws and two losses but bounced back in their last match with a 1-0 win over New England, thanks to a goal from Kévin Denkey. The Togolese striker is the team’s top scorer with 11 goals and has found the net in three straight matches.

They are the third-best away team in the league, with five wins, one draw, and four losses. In that span, they’ve scored 12 goals and conceded 15. All five of those wins have come in their last eight away games.

Coach Pat Noonan will be without some key players like Nick Hagglund and Yuya Kubo due to injury, while Miles Robinson is away with the United States national team for the Gold Cup.
