- DC United have the fewest conceded goals (4) at home in Major League Soccer
- Montreal Impact have won significantly less corners away then at home.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Montreal Impact have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 4200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

A strong away win for DC United against Columbus Crew the last match, as Yordy Reyna (2) and Ola Kamara (2) were on target. Midfielder Yordy Reyna was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.4 (out of ten) in that game. Reyna scored two goals and hit one key pass.

0-0 away at Cincinnati before that.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

The DC United fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 12 goals in 7 league matches. From these home matches, DC United have conceded only 4 goals.
Montreal Impact form and stats
There's been little loot from Montreal Impact's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 9 away games in the Major League Soccer. Montreal Impact only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on W. Nancy, the Montreal Impact manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
Montreal delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against Atlanta United (placed 10th) in their previous match; a Major League Soccer game. The attacker Djordje Mihailovic got a match rating of 8.15 in that game. Mihailovic served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled passed the opponent 7 of 11 times and had 40 successful passes (of 49 total). Drawing 2-2 against Atlanta United after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager W. Nancy needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.
A 1-2 defeat away at Inter Miami before that.We have checked recent matches where Montreal have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those nine games were four victories, one draw and four defeats.
The attacking power of Montreal when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 9 league matches away. 11 goals have been conceded by Montreal in these games.
