Inter Miami vs CF Montreal prediction, preview, team news and more | MLS 2021

Looking to end their seven-game winless run in the MLS, Inter Miami welcome CF Montreal to the DRV PNK Stadium on Sunday.

Montreal will be looking to complete a league double over the hosts, having claimed a 1-0 win on home turf four weeks ago.

Inter Miami failed to end their winless run on Monday as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Philadelphia Union.

Kacper Przybyłko dashed the hearts of the Inter Miami faithful as he canceled out Robbie Robinson’s opener with five minutes remaining on the clock.

Prior to that, the Herons failed to pick up a point in their last six games, conceding 13 goals and scoring just once.

This series of underwhelming performances has seen Phil Neville’s men drop to the bottom of the Eastern Conference table after picking up nine points from their 13 outings.

Meanwhile, CF Montreal suffered a second straight loss last time out as they were beaten 2-1 by a rampant New England Revolution side.

In-form striker Gustavo Bau scored a brace to put the Revs two goals ahead before Djordje Mihailovic pulled one back in the 79th minute.

Prior to that, Wilfried Nancy’s side fell to a narrow 1-0 defeat away to New York City FC, which ended their six-game unbeaten streak.

Despite the slight decline, CF Montreal have been impressive so far. They currently sit in the final play-off spot with 22 points, one point behind sixth-placed New York City FC.
