The 2024 edition of MLS is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as CF Montreal take on a struggling Nashville SC side in a crucial encounter at Geodis Park on Saturday.
Nashville SC vs CF Montreal Preview
Nashville SC are in 14th place in the MLS Eastern Conference standings and have not been at their best this season. The hosts were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw by San Jose Earthquakes in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
CF Montreal, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the league table and have been inconsistent this season. The away side kept Columbus Crew at bay to secure a 0-0 stalemate last week and will need to take it up a notch in this match.
