Nashville Nashville look to have the edge
Nashville are top of the pile in MLS 2026 with 33 points from 14 games and GEODIS Park has become a fortress for the hosts this season. They have won 3, drawn 1 and lost just 1 of their last 5 matches, including a 3-0 win at New England Revolution and home wins over LAFC and NYCFC.
B.J. Callaghan's team like to play a front-foot game, they are possession dominant and aggressive, but also disciplined enough to switch gears and play through the pressure in the right moments. The hosts score plenty of goals, 23 at home in MLS 2026, and have plenty of bite up top, as evidenced by the performances of Sam Surridge, who has 9 in 8 league games, and Warren Madrigal, who has 3 goals in the last 5.
CF Montreal are the minnows of the league and arrive at GEODIS Park with 14 points from 14 games, putting them 24th in the league. Philippe Eullaffroy's team are more vertical than the visitors to Nashville usually are and favour a vertical style of play, hoping to steal the ball and break quickly.
CF Montreal can be got at
The home team are the most likely winners of this game and odds of 1.47 do not justify the long odds of 7.38 on CF Montréal or 4.68 on the draw.
Over 2.5 goals at 1.49 is the better alternative. Both teams to score at 1.7 is also live, but that price is not as attractive. CF Montréal have won their last 2 games, both against Vancouver Langley FC, but those results did not count in MLS proper.
Prince Osei Owusu is CF Montréal's best bet up top with 9 goals in 14 MLS 2026 games and 4 in his last 5. CF Montréal have lost 6 of 8 away games in MLS 2026 and conceded 24 goals, so if Nashville can keep the pressure up they should be able to get some goals.
Cristian Espinoza has 3 assists in Nashville's last 5 games, so he could be the man to make it all happen for the home side in the final pass. The clash of possession versus press is the big storyline for this game and Nashville's structure should see them come out on top more often than not, controlling the flow of the game and hopefully opening it up enough to score goals.
