Toronto FC vs CF Montreal: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Toronto FC host CF Montreal at BMO Field on Saturday, October 10 (1:00 PM ET / 12:00 PM CT / 10:00 AM PT).

Toronto FC have no fresh absences to report, and the attacking picture centers on Daniel Sallói, a midfielder with seven goals and a team-high thirty chances created this season, alongside Josh Sargent, a striker with seven goals and nineteen shots on target of his own. CF Montreal’s lineup is expected to lean on Prince Owusu, a striker with fifteen goals and thirty-three shots on target, and Matthew Longstaff, a midfielder with two goals and twenty-five chances created from the middle of the park.

This has the makings of a cagey, low-scoring affair between two sides with defensive issues to work through — Toronto FC’s -12 goal difference and CF Montreal’s -20 both point to games short on quality at both ends. Toronto FC sit 13th in the Eastern Conference and still have something to play for, while CF Montreal are 15th and will need a big finish to the season to make up ground.
