Preview | Revolution returns home to face CF Montréal for the second time in a month
New England Revolution
The New England Revolution will return to Gillette Stadium on Saturday night to face CF Montréal for the second time in a month. The Revs are coming off a 2-0 loss to the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday night, while Montréal is coming off a 1-0 win over the Chicago Fire on Saturday.
The Revs have a 1-1-1 record against Montréal this season, with the two teams playing to a 2-2 draw at Gillette Stadium on April 16. The Revs won the most recent meeting, a 2-1 victory at Stade Saputo on May 7.
The Revs will be looking to get back on track after their loss to the Union. The Revs were outshot 17-6 by the Union and never really threatened to score. The Revs will need to be much better against Montréal, who are one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
CF Montréal
CF Montréal is currently in second place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 7-4-3. Montréal has been one of the most surprising teams in MLS this season, and they will be looking to continue their good form against the Revs.
Montréal has a number of dangerous players, including Djordje Mihailovic, Romell Quioto, and Kei Kamara. The Revs will need to be aware of these players and make sure they don't get too much space to operate.
The Revs will also need to be careful of Montréal's set pieces. Montréal has scored a number of goals from set pieces this season, and the Revs will need to be organized and disciplined in their defending.
Conclusion
The Revs will be looking to get back on track on Saturday night against Montréal. The Revs will need to be much better than they were against the Union if they want to win. Montréal is a good team, but the Revs have the talent to win if they play to their potential.
