Cincinnati continue to have a really bad time so far in the season, as they are currently having the worst start for an expansion side since 2015. They are coming off a string of bad matches and will now look to put a stop when they will host Montreal Impact on Saturday. Montreal have been really good lately and will look to take advantage here.

Cincinnati (2-7-2) are coming into this match after a really frustrating 0-1 loss on the road against San Jose, with their opponents playing with 10 men for the entire second half. That was the fifth consecutive loss for Cincinnati, who have failed to score a single goal in that span. They are now sitting at the 11th spot of the Eastern Conference with 8 points, just as many as New England below them. Cincinnati have been slightly better at home overall (1-2-1). Montreal Impact (6-4-2) fought really hard in their away match against the Red Bulls and managed to turn the result around and win by 2-1. That was their third win in their last four, as Montreal have lost just two of their last eight matches (4-2-2). They are sitting at the 3rd spot of the Eastern Conference with 20 points but are tied with DC United and Philadelphia Union above them. Montreal have the best away record in the Conference (4-3-2) but they have played almost twice as many away matches as the other teams.

Montreal Impact have lost all four of their debut away matches against expansion franchises but they can take advantage of their opponents’ struggles here. Cincinnati are dying to put an end to their losing streak but they have been weak up front. With just one goal in their last seven I just can’t trust them right now.
