Columbus Crew vs Montréal Preview and Team News
Columbus Crew Team News
Columbus Crew remains unbeaten in their first six matches of the 2025 MLS season.
Against D.C. United, they employed a high-pressing strategy, forcing turnovers and capitalizing on quick transitions, leading to Diego Rossi’s decisive goals.
In their matches against New York City FC and Houston Dynamo, Columbus Crew maintained clean sheets through disciplined positioning and effective communication among the backline. In the draw with San Diego FC, Crew equalised through the strategic use of width and exploiting spaces behind the opposition’s defense.

Forward Diego Rossi led the team with four goals. Midfielder Jacen Russell-Rowe also contributed significantly with two goals. The defense is very solid, conceding only four goals thus far.
Regarding injuries, Columbus Crew have a relatively healthy squad, allowing head coach Wilfried Nancy to field a consistent lineup. This stability contributed to their cohesive performances on the pitch.
Columbus Crew predicted lineup vs Montréal (4-3-3): Bush; Ruvalcaba, Zawadzki, Cheberko, Herrera; Chambost, Nagbe, Jones, Rossi; Jackson, Russell-Rowe
Montréal Team News
Montréal have struggled in the early stages of the season, failing to secure a win in their first six matches.
The departure of forward Josef Martínez, who led the team with 13 goals in 2024, has left a big void in their attack. Midfielders Nathan Saliba and Rida Zouhir have each scored once but have been unable to compensate fully for the loss of Martínez.
On the defensive end, Montréal have conceded ten goals in six matches, indicating issues in their backline.

In response to this poor run of form, Montréal dismissed head coach Laurent Courtois on March 24. Assistant coach Marco Donadel has stepped in as interim head coach, aiming to revitalize the team’s performance.
Injury concerns further complicate Montréal’s situation. Key players such as forward Giacomo Vrioni (groin injury), center-back Jalen Neal (knee injury), and midfielder Samuel Piette (unknown injury) are sidelined.
