6 - @alberthelis17 has converted all 6 penalties he's attempted in @MLS. The only active player with a better 100% record from the spot is Saphir Taïder (8/8). Cool.#MLSisBack

Montreal Impact vs DC United Prediction

Both teams occupy the bottom-half of Group B. Thierry Henry's Montreal Impact are yet to register a win, having lost both their games so far. Former Barcelona forward Bojan is expected to feature and much will be expected of him after a quiet start to his MLS career.

DC United manager Ben Olsen, on the other hand, looks set to start Ola Kamara. The Norwegian was a substitute against the New England Revolution but could be named in the starting XI this time around.

Kamara enjoyed a fruitful spell with LA Galaxy before moving to China. Now back in the MLS, the forward looks set to lead the line for his team.

Prediction: Montreal Impact 1:1 DC United
