DC United vs CF Montreal Prediction & Betting Tips (31 March)

Although results have picked up a bit recently, the fact that DC United have recorded just two victories in their previous 12 top-flight home fixtures, losing on five occasions, goes a long way towards explaining why they find themselves locked in a difficult battle. As for title-chasing CF Montreal, they have triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late.

Somewhat incredibly, 17 of the 18 home games played by DC United during the current MLS campaign have been of the over 2.5 goals variety, with the exception being a loss dduring one of their last games. Although CF Montreal cannot compete with these numbers, it remains the case that seven of their last ten top-flight fixtures have served up a minimum of three goals.

When CF Montreal come calling in the MLS, the net tends to bulge at both ends, with this being the case in no fewer than 11 of the CF Montreal most recent 15 away matches. Given that this has also been the case in 14 of the last 20 DC United home games at this level, it would come as a surprise were either keeper to emerge from this contest with a clean sheet.
