D.C. United takes one of their last 4 roads trips of the year this weekend when they go to Montreal to take on the Impact. As we mentioned on this week’s Filibuster, D.C. United will likely have to pass the Montreal Impact in order to get into the playoffs, so this game and the game at Audi Field will be key to realizing any possibility of getting to postseason.
Ben Olsen made two changes to his starting lineup from the previous game, one forced and one coach’s decision: Paul Arriola was suspended, and so Russell Canouse made his first start of the season, while Olsen decided to start Kofi Opare instead of Frederic Brillant for his first start as well.
