HARRISON, New Jersey – CF Montréal heads to New Jersey this Wednesday to take on the New York Red Bulls at Red Bull Arena at 7:30pm (MLS Season Pass, RDS, TSN, BPM Sports, TSN 690).
Playing three games in eight days, the Montrealers will visit the Red Bulls with an overall record of 10-14-3 and 2-12-0 on their opponents’ home turf since 2012.
