MONTREAL — CF Montreal looks for a fourth-straight Major League Soccer win and more momentum in its playoff push when it visits New York City FC on Wednesday.
After a three-week break due to its elimination from the mid-season Leagues Cup tournament, Montreal has begun the final push for the post-season with two wins, including just their second on the road this season.On the other hand, New York has struggled this season, winning just one of its last 17 regular season games.
“It would be beautiful to keep this momentum and to keep winning games. The one thing you want to do is to make sure they don’t get hope and feel you can catch up,” said Montreal head coach Hernan Losada. “They got seven new players during this window, so that’s a lot of reinforcements to make sure they are ready for the final push.”
Montreal controls its destiny and needs only to maintain its positive results to ensure a post-season berth. However, dropping points against chasing teams would narrow the gap Montreal has built during its win streak. One of the peculiarities of playing against New York City FC on the road is Yankee Stadium. Montreal is used to the Stade Saputo pitch — the largest in MLS at 7,700 square metres — but will now have to adapt to the baseball diamond-turned-soccer pitch that only clocks in at 6,464 square metres, the league’s smallest.
