Last time out: L 2-1 at New York Red Bulls (Matan 33’)
At a glance: After 2 seasons at the helm of CF Montréal, Wilfried Nancy took the reins of one of MLS’s original clubs on Dec. 6 after leading CFM to a 2nd-place finish in the East in 2022, thanks to a stretch that saw them lost just once in their final 15 regular-season matches. Crew ownership will hope that the Frenchman can return them to past glories: while Caleb Porter led them MLS Cup in 2020, he was shown the door after missing the playoffs in back-to-back years.
