CF Montreal eyes playoffs, faces stiff test against second-place New England Revolution
With 10 games left in its regular season, and all focus on landing a Major League Soccer playoff berth, CF Montreal is preparing for the New England Revolution’s visit to Stade Saputo on Saturday night.
“Even with Carles Gil and [Emmanuel] Boateng as question marks, it [New England] remains a very good team with a lot of experience,” said Montreal head coach Hernan Losada.Montreal’s stretch run is nothing short of challenging. In order to make the playoffs it will need to collect points against teams that are breathing down its neck.
Montreal also has a strong record when the East’s best visit Stade Saputo. They have already beat four of the top six in the conference at home this season, with New England and FC Cincinnati left to play. “We had a bad game over there and it was really bad timing as well because they were in very good form,” said Losada. “Now for them, it’s been a long time since they’ve played because they didn’t play last week.”
Jules-Anthony Vilsaint and Mahal Opoku are both in their first season with the club but have shown signs of a promising chemistry in Montreal’s last two outings. They have created numerous chances and have fed off each another.
