Montreal Impact travel to the capital for an MLS clash on Sunday evening, when they take on DC United.
Thierry Henry's Montreal Impact are in horrible form, having lost four of their last five games. In their last match, a solitary Daryl Dike goal left Monreal Impact licking their wounds in a 1-0 loss to Orlando City SC.
They will take on DC United in the regular season finale, who had a run of three straight wins halted in their last match, when they lost a crazy game 4-3 to the New England Revolution.
Two points separate DC United and Montreal Impact in the MLS Eastern Conference standings right now, with four places between the two sides.
With a win on Sunday, DC United will go a point above Montreal Impact, and potentially into contention to qualify for the playoffs.
DC United vs Montreal Impact Head-to-Head
There is a nice symmetry about the head-to-head record between these two teams in the previous 21 matches they have played. Almost as a tribute to the uncertainty of the sport, each result has happened seven times between these two teams.
