CF Montreal<\/a> host Charlotte FC<\/a> at Stade Saputo on Wednesday, September 9 (7:30 PM ET \/ 6:30 PM CT \/ 4:30 PM PT).<\/p>\n

There are no fresh fitness concerns on either team sheet, so CF Montreal should again lean on Prince Osei Owusu<\/a>, who has 13 goals and 26 shots on target this season, alongside Matthew Longstaff’s 24 chances created in midfield. Charlotte FC will look to Pep Biel, their top scorer with 11 goals and a team-high 37 chances created, to lead the line, with Liel Abada and Ashley Westwood offering support from wide areas.<\/p>\n

Montreal arrive 14th in the Eastern Conference<\/a> on 21 points, their playoff hopes fading after a 7-1 mauling at Inter Miami, while Charlotte sit fifth on 35 points and squarely in the playoff picture<\/a>. Expect a tight contest at Saputo Stadium that tilts Charlotte’s way, with our model calling a narrow 1-2 win for the visitors.<\/p>\n
