How are Montréal coming in?

Like their opponent this afternoon, the Montréal team is looking for three points to climb up the standings, they are currently in ninth place and above them is their opponent this afternoon, so they will have to give one of their best games to keep fighting for the playoffs. 

October 30, 2021 3:35 PM ET

How is New York RB coming?

The New York RBs still have a chance to qualify for the playoffs and if they beat this afternoon's opponent, the locals would be in a position to qualify and it would depend only on them to achieve this goal.

Watch out for this player from Montreal:

Romell Quioto, an experienced Honduran striker, has been in charge of being the net breaker for the Canadians, with 8 goals scored this season in 17 games played and starting 14, showing that he is a player who generates constant danger in the opponent's area.

October 30, 2021 3:10 PM ET

Watch out for this New York RB player:

Patryk Klimala, the 23 year old Polish striker, has been present in 27 games starting 24 of them, the young striker is the goals leader in his club, conceding 8 goals this season, no doubt he is a dangerous player and the opposing team will have to pay attention to this player.

Montréal between glory and failure.

The Canadian team has to start winning and making it three wins out of three, as they are very close to the qualification places, but in their last three games they have gone home with three draws, and if they keep this streak they would not be able to be among the first seven classified, if they win against the New York team, they could climb to the last two qualification places. 

October 30, 2021 2:45 PM ET

The bulls are looking to get back to winning ways.

The New York team was coming from a streak of 4 consecutive wins and 8 games without defeat, but DC United came last Wednesday to defeat them again and put themselves above them in the standings, the locals know that if they can get back to winning ways they can aspire to the classification.

October 30, 2021 2:40 PM ET

New York RB and Montreal face each other for more than just 3 points.

The dispute between the New Yorkers and Canadians has an added value because the teams are positioned in 8th and 9th place for the playoffs, whoever manages to win the 3 points will be able to position themselves in the last positions to get the ticket to the final phase of the tournament.
