New York City FC vs CF Montréal Preview and Team News
New York City FC Team News
New York City have had an average start to their MLS season. In their opening 10 matches, they have 5 wins, 2 draws, and 4 defeats. They have a decent 13 goals, but they have conceded 13 in the process, which has made it difficult for them to win matches.

The focus for Pascal Jansen will be to get his side more balance between attack and defense as they bid to regain some consistency in MLS. This is badly needed if they are to climb the table.
The 17 points they have hauled so far mean that NYC are 7 points behind the leaders of the Eastern Conference after 11 MLS rounds, Columbus Crew.
Pascal Jansen will have to make do without the injured Malachi Jones (broken leg) and Jacob Arroyave (knee injury) in their home clash against Montréal on Saturday.
New York City FC predicted lineup vs CF Montréal (3-2-4-1): Freese; Grya, Martins, Haak; Parks, Shore; Fernandez, Moralez, Perea, Wolf; Martinez.
CF Montréal Team News
Montréal sit at the bottom of the Eastern Conference after 11 rounds of fixtures. They remain winless so far this season, drawing 3 times and losing 8 matches in the process.
Their dismal form is captured by their lack of cutting edge in front of goal. They have managed 5 goals in 11 matches, the lowest tally in the Eastern Conference. They have also conceded 16 goals in this run, which has made it significantly harder for them to get a win.
Marque finale.

Last time out, Montréal lost 1-2 at home to Philadelphia, extending their winless run to a staggering 11 matches. The loss followed a 3-2 triumph on penalties against Toronto in the Canadian Championship preliminary round, after the two sides drew 2-2 in regulation time.
Montréal will be without Jules-Anthony Vilsaint in their Saturday trip to the Yankee Stadium as the 22-year-old is sidelined with injury.
CF Montréal predicted lineup vs New York City FC (4-4-2): Sirois; Waterman, Campbell, Alvarez, Pearce; Sealy, Saliba, Piette, Herbers; Vrioni, Owusu.
New York City FC vs CF Montréal Prediction
- Pick: New York City to win
- Odds: -143 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: New York City 2-1 Montréal
NYC go into this match with a better run of form in the opening 11 outings in the MLS. They have had better dynamism in attack, resulting in 13 goals in 11 matches; this will serve them well when they come up against the Montréal defense.
In contrast, Montréal have been poor in both attack and defense, which makes it difficult for them to be competitive against an organized New York City away from home.

Montréal will focus on adopting a shape that will allow them to be compact and minimize the spaces behind the defense that opponents have exploited this season. This means they will be reactive and pragmatic.
However, my take is that New York City, playing at home, will have sufficient firepower to take the three points on Saturday.
New York City FC vs CF Montréal Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: New York City win to nil – Yes
- Odds: +170 (20Bet)
Montréal have struggled offensively this season, averaging 0.4 goals per match. In contrast, New York City have shown solid defensive performances recently, securing clean sheets in wins against Philadelphia (1-0) and Toronto (0-1).
Given these stats, a win-to-nil bet on New York City FC could be a reasonable choice.
Additionally, with injuries having a minimal impact on either side, this could come down to the current trajectory in form, which also favors a win “to nil” for the home side.
