CF Montréal 1-3 FC Cincinnati

Current streaks

Recent form

CF Montréal

CF Montréal have been experiencing a tumultuous period in their recent fixtures, with a concerning run of form that has seen them win just once in their last six matches. The team's defensive frailties are particularly evident, having conceded a staggering 17 goals in these games, including a 6-1 thrashing at the hands of Toronto FC. This high-scoring affair, along with the 4-2 loss to Inter Miami, highlights Montréal's struggles at the back. Their inability to keep a clean sheet for seven consecutive matches further underscores their defensive woes. On a positive note, Montréal have managed to find the back of the net in five of their last six games, demonstrating some attacking prowess. However, their goal difference of -9 and their lowly 15th position in the league table with just 11 points from 18 games suggest that significant improvements are needed across all areas of their play.

FC Cincinnati

FC Cincinnati's recent form presents a mixed picture, with the team showing resilience despite some inconsistent results. Currently sitting in 2nd position with 33 points from 18 games, they have managed 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 6 matches. Notably, their goal-scoring prowess has been evident, netting 9 goals in these games, averaging 1.5 goals per match. However, their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 10 goals at an average of 1.67 per game, resulting in a slight negative goal difference. The 3-3 draw against FC Dallas stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair, showcasing their attacking capabilities. Cincinnati have kept two clean sheets in this period, demonstrating their ability to shut out opponents when at their best. With both teams scoring in 67% of these matches and an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals, FC Cincinnati's matches have been entertaining and unpredictable.

Recent home/away form

CF Montréal

CF Montréal's recent home form has been decidedly poor, with the club failing to secure a single victory in their last six matches at Stade Saputo. The team have managed only three draws and suffered three losses, including a particularly humiliating 6-1 defeat to Toronto FC. Their defensive frailties are evident, conceding an alarming average of 2.33 goals per game, whilst struggling to find the back of the net themselves, scoring a mere 0.83 goals per match. The high-scoring affair against Toronto FC stands out as an anomaly in an otherwise low-scoring run, with 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Despite keeping one clean sheet, Montréal's goal difference of -9 over these six games highlights their struggles at both ends of the pitch, leaving them languishing in 15th position in the league table.

FC Cincinnati

FC Cincinnati have shown mixed form away from home, with three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six away matches. Their most recent victory against New England Revolution demonstrates their ability to grind out narrow wins on the road, having secured two 1-0 victories in their last four away games. The team's defensive record is noteworthy, with two clean sheets in their last six away matches. However, their 4-2 loss to Atlanta United highlights potential vulnerabilities at the back. Cincinnati have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, particularly the 5-goal thriller against Chicago Fire which they won 3-2. Interestingly, 67% of their recent away games have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, lower-scoring matches on their travels.
