Currently in ninth place, Montreal (10-13-10) only needs a draw against New York City FC (14-11-8) at Stade Saputo to secure its spot in the Eastern Conference wild-card game.
CF Montreal celebrates - The Canadian PressMONTREAL — Just six weeks ago, CF Montreal was on the brink of collapse. Now Montreal has the perfect chance to exorcise its demons on Saturday.
In September, Laurent Courtois' squad didn’t seem to have to worry about facing those types of disappointments because Montreal was just one point from the bottom of the East. Then, a 4-1-1 record in the last six matches suddenly put Montreal in the driver's seat. “But at the end of the day this is the most important game, so if we don’t do it now then obviously it didn’t matter. It all comes down to tomorrow.”
Montreal will be without midfielder Nathan Saliba, who’s suspended for the match because of an accumulation of yellow cards.
