Montreal team news and form: Lassi Lappalainen injury hits CF Montreal hard

The prolific Finnish winger is injured and will miss the game against New York City on the 20^th of October. Surely, this is a big smack to the face for coach Laurent Courtois as he would’ve wanted to use Lappalainen among the starters.

Predicted lineup: Sirois (GK), Corbo, Watterman, Campbell, Marshall-Rutty, Piette, Saliba, Edwards, Clark, Duke & Martinez

Player to watch: Alonso Martinez

Since the start of the season, Martinez has managed to score a total of 16 goals. However, seeing as the team is already through to the next phase, maybe the manager will opt to give him a rest against Montreal. Only time will tell.

Second player to watch: Josef Martinez

Former Inter Miami star Josef Martinez will be the one on whom the fans will rely mostly against New York City. He bagged 10 goals since the start of the season and we are convinced he will try to ruin our Montreal vs New York City predictions.
