Key Stats
- Montreal have won just one of their last six competitive games (D2, L3).
- The Impact are winless in three straight competitive outings at home (D1, L2).
- Club Leon have lost six of their last seven league matches (W1).
- The Emeralds have lost each of their last three away games.
Correct score prediction: Montreal 1-1 Leon
Montreal raced to a 3-1 victory away at New England Revolution, marking just their fourth triumph in 25 MLS games all season. The win halted their five-match winless streak in domestic competitions, as they enter this Leagues Cup clash with added momentum.
Interim coach Marco Donadel will expect his side to go all out for a victory, and Leon arrive at the Saputo Stadium in similar form as the hosts. The Verdiblancos fell to a 4-1 loss at Cruz Azul last matchday, before which they edged 1-0 past Guadalajara Chivas. With both sides in shaky form, we expect them to share spoils in a close contest.

- DRAW: 5/2 (3.50) – 28.5%
