CF Montreal is back at Saputo Stadium to face Sporting Kansas City tonight, an opponent it hasn’t seen since March 2019.
So it’s been a very long time since these two teams have crossed swords.
The match is presented on TVA Sports and on TVA Sports direct.
In the spring of 2019, KC inflicted a 7-1 correction on the Montrealers in Missouri.
Defender Rudy Camacho is one of the few survivors of that era, and that game has long been forgotten.
If you’re looking for Sporting in the Western Conference standings, you’ll have to look at them upside down, as they sit 14th and bottom, which is highly unusual for KC, who are a regular at first positions.
Hard against the West
We can say that the Western teams are giving the Bleu-blanc-noir a hard time this season, because Wilfried Nancy’s team is 2-4 against them.
CF Montreal will be looking to deliver a performance that will overshadow their 4-0 loss to the Galaxy in Los Angeles on Monday.
Recently, the Montrealers lost to Real Salt Lake and Austin FC at Stade Saputo, which is why we have to take this game against Kansas City seriously.
It’s currently tied at 1-1 in the second half.
