Toronto FC
- Toronto FC are 27th in MLS 2026 with 29 points from 27 games.
- Toronto FC are in poor form, coming into this game on the back of three consecutive defeats and just one win in their last five.
- Toronto FC have been much better at BMO Field in MLS 2026 than they have been on the road.
- The Reds have four wins, eight draws and just two losses from their 14 home games in Canada this season, but the amount of ties are keeping them down in the standings.
- Daniel Salloi is the Reds' top scorer in MLS 2026 with seven goals from 27 games.
CF Montréal
- CF Montréal are 29th in MLS 2026 with 24 points from 27 matches.
- CF Montréal have two wins, three defeats and zero draws from their last five matches.
- The L'Impact lost 3-1 away to St. Louis City and were beaten 2-0 on the road by Nashville SC in their most recent outing.
- CF Montréal talisman Prince Osei Owusu is the only real goal threat in this team with 15 goals from 25 MLS 2026 games and four of his team's last six goals have been scored by him.
- The CF Montréal side have been pretty woeful on their travels this term and it is difficult to tip them to take anything from this fixture.
Head-to-Head
- Toronto FC have not won either of their last two home MLS 2026 games against CF Montréal.
- However, given that the last two MLS 2026 head-to-head games have been ties and the sides last met in Montréal a couple of months ago and played out a 0-0 stalemate, it is reasonable to assume that Toronto will not run away with this one.
Key Players
- Daniel Salloi is the Reds' top scorer in MLS 2026 with seven goals from 27 games.
- Joshua Sargent has brought a spark to the team of late with three goals in his last five games.
- CF Montréal talisman Prince Osei Owusu is the only real goal threat in this team with 15 goals from 25 MLS 2026 games and four of his team's last six goals have been scored by him.
Betting Insights
- The two Canadian teams have been poor this season and Toronto FC are the favourites at 1.9 compared to 3.45 for CF Montréal, who are 29th on the ladder, while the draw is priced at 3.9.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.5 seems a good fit for the clash in Canada, while both teams to score at 1.45 is a solid play on the odds, although a draw is my selection.
Prediction
- Both sides have a lot to prove to the rest of the league, but I am confident that there will be goals in this one as Toronto FC and CF Montréal come into this derby game.
- Given the recent head-to-head ties and the goalless meeting in Montréal, a draw looks the most likely outcome, with goals expected and over 2.5 and both teams to score as sensible alternative plays.
