Following a three-game losing streak from matchday 25, the hosts are trapped in mid-table. They have only managed one point in their past two games, both at home. Montreal was defeated 4-2 by Colombus Crew last week before drawing 0-0 with Chicago Fire on Saturday. However, with 36 points and a 16th-place finish in the rankings, Montreal will find it tough to recreate its 2022 success.
Meanwhile, Cincinnati is aiming for greatness, as they lead the overall standings by eight points over second-placed Orlando City SC (50). However, Cincinnati has struggled in their previous two games, losing 1-0 to Orlando City before drawing 2-2 with Philadelphia at Subaru Park.
