Montreal will welcome Nashville to Saputo Stadium in Major League Soccer on Saturday. With two rounds of matches to conclude the regular season, both sides, more or less, already know their fate.
Montreal vs Nashville Preview
Montreal have struggled all season, managing just six victories in 32 matches. They have drawn nine times and lost 17 times, which leaves them 13th with 27 points in the Eastern Conference table. They can no longer qualify for the playoffs, even if they win their last two matches.
L'Impact are closing their campaign worse off than the previous season, when they finished in the eighth spot and earned qualification to the playoffs. The hosts returned to winning ways in their last game, defeating Charlotte 4-1 on the road, to end a three-match winless streak. Montreal will hope to build on that momentum.
