Pacific vs Forge Betting Tips & Predictions
The remaining Canadian Premier League matches were merely the undercard to the main event that the Pacific vs Forge showdown at Starlight Stadium undoubtedly is. Stay tuned to get the full scoop on our Pacific vs Forge predictions this week.

Pacific to Win
The 2021 Canadian Premier League champions are favorites ahead of Monday’s clash. There’s no denying that. Sure, at +220, Forge are the bookies’ expected champion this year but Pacific aren’t far from those standards at +425.
Furthermore, Pacific are the favorites to win this clash as they are the ones who’ll enjoy the home-field support at Starlight Stadium. We expect to see a packed venue for this clash as Pacific’s tremendous run goes on. Meanwhile, the visitors couldn’t win a single one of the two Canadian Premier League matches and will have pressure to succeed. And as you are probably aware, that’s a terrific foundation stone for our Pacific vs Forge prediction as the visitors will be susceptible to errors.
Under 2.5 Goals
Not one of Pacific’s three opening games this season ended with over 2.5 goals. First of all, the opening Canadian Premier League clash versus newly established Vancouver ended with a thrifty 1-0 win at Starlight Stadium while the second clash was a 1-1 tie versus Cavalry. The Canadian Championship match against Cavalry also ended 1-1 in the 90 minutes. The victor had to be decided after added time.
Meanwhile, Forge’s last Canadian Premier League brawl also ended with a 1-1 tie. Surely, our Pacific vs Forge predictions have a solid chance of success as neither team is particularly active up front these days.

Pacific vs Forge Lineups & Team News
Pacific
Coach James Merriman’s boys are joint-top with Valour. Both teams have four points to their names but Pacific are in 2nd place due to their a tad more lackluster goal ratio. Pacific scored only two goals while Valour found the net on three occasions. That being said, we have to give credit where credit is due, Pacific should’ve been at the top as the 1-1 tie against Cavalry last week was one of the unluckiest results we’ve seen recently. The visitors at Starlight Stadium didn’t have a single shot on target yet the result on the scoreboard after 90 minutes of soccer was 1-1.
Predicted lineup – Gazdov (GK), Dada-Luke, Didic, Lajeunesse, Mukumbilwa, Yeates, Toussaint, Young, Heard, Reid & Sellouf
Forge
With three goals scored, three goals conceded and two draws in the first two Canadian Premier League matches, it’s understandable why Forge are currently in 5th place. However, they did crush Laval 3-0 in the Canadian Championship so there’s a chance our Pacific vs Forge predictions to be in jeopardy.
Predicted lineup – Henry (GK), Rama, James, Metusala, Owolabi-Belewu, Hojabrpour, Choiniere, Sissoko, Jensen, Poku & Hamilton
Starting Lineups
*Starting lineups are usually announced 1hr before the kick-off
Player to Watch: Manny Aparicio
One thing is certain – Manny Aparicio certainly picked up from where he left off last year. With a goal and an assist already to his name, he’s both the top goalscorer and the best creator for Pacific.
There aren’t that many solid performers up front at coach James Merriman’s disposal. That means Manny Aparicio has a starting position locked. He’s fit, he’s in great shape, and we’re sure he’ll continue impressing his manager with a sturdy performance over Forge. If he does manage to score a goal or provide an assist, he’ll help make our Pacific vs Forge predictions a success this week.
