CF Montreal vs DC United Prediction and Betting Tips | July 26th 2023

DC United get their 2023 Leagues Cup campaign underway on Wednesday when they take on CF Montreal at the Saputo Stadium.

The Black-and-Red head into the game off the back of a humbling league defeat against New England Revolution and will look to bounce back to winning ways.

CF Montreal were left spitting feathers on Sunday as they played out a 2-2 draw against Pumas UNAM after bottling a two-goal lead in the final three minutes of the game.

The game went on to penalties, where Hernán Losada’s men claimed a 4-2 victory, with Adrián Aldrete and Jorge Ruvalcaba missing from the spot for the Mexican outfit.

Prior to that, Montreal picked up a comfortable victory over Charlotte in the MLS to end their three-game losing streak and move into 10th place in the Eastern Conference table.

DC United were denied a second successive away victory last time out as they suffered a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of New England Revolution.

Wayne Rooney’s side have now failed to win three of their last four games, losing twice and picking up one draw since the start of July.

The Black-and-Red, who are currently ninth in the MLS Eastern Conference, will look to find their feet on Wednesday and kickstart their Leagues Cup quest on the front foot.
