Charlotte FC vs. CF Montréal | 7:30 pm ET | Oct. 5
Hey, uh, have y’all noticed that CF Montréal is suddenly in the driver’s seat for a Wild Card spot? What’s even crazier is that they’re only five points back from seventh place. And you’ll never guess who happens to be in seventh place.
Montréal, a team we all left for dead after a 5-0 loss to NEW ENGLAND, has taken 13 points from their last five games. Three of those 13 points came against Charlotte. If Montréal can continue to ride the heater that Josef Martínez and Caden Clark are suddenly on and pick up a win against seventh-place Charlotte, they’ll be within two points of The Crown heading into Decision Day. They could also go ahead and seal a spot in the playoffs here. Suddenly, we’re aiming a lot higher with Montréal.
On the Charlotte side, they’re still capable of catching up to fifth-place NYCFC and maybe even fourth-place Orlando with some help. That’s a long shot, but they’re still playing for the opportunity to avoid Miami and Columbus in Round One.
