Four defeats and a draw in their last five, and about to face the table-toppers in the East in a few hours... it just doesn’t get any easier for Thierry Henry and his Montreal Impact.
But despite the absence of top-scorer Romell Quioto (injured), the pendulum may yet be swinging a little voraciously towards the Crew. The Impact welcome back Luis Binks into central defence and could see Saphir Taider return to action following injury.
They are also boosted by the recent form of Bojan Krkic coinciding with his return to health and have the option of new signing Mason Toye upon which to call.
