Welcome to your match thread for tonight's match-up between Orlando City (6-7-1, 19 points) and the Montreal Impact (4-11-0, 12 points) at Stade Saputo. It’s the first of the two scheduled meetings between these Eastern Conference opponents, with the Impact visiting Orlando in just 10 days, on Saturday, June 23.
The Lions are 3-3-2 against Montreal in the all-time series since the club joined MLS, and 1-2-1 in Montreal. Last year, the Impact won this fixture in the most recent meeting, a 2-1 Montreal win on Aug. 5. Cyle Larin scored 12 minutes in, but the Impact equalized from the penalty spot on Ignacio Piatti’s PK goal early in the second half.
