It is in 8th position that CF Montreal will begin the last day of the season. Charlotte FC faced Inter Miami in their penultimate match of the campaign on Wednesday in Florida, but they were unable to overtake Montreal in the standings as they settled for a 2-2 draw. .
Charlotte had the chance to move from 12th to 8th with a win over Miami, but an 84th-minute equalizer from Robbie Robinson allowed the home side, who are already out of the playoff race, to pick up a point without their star Lionel Messi, rested following his brace the day before for Argentina in Peru in World Cup qualifying.
Montreal, with 41 points, is still ahead of DC United (mathematically eliminated), the New York Red Bulls, the Chicago Fire and Charlotte, who all have 40 points. Hernán Losada’s team also has the advantage over all these teams with regard to the first tiebreaker, the number of victories (12 once morest 10 or 9, depending on the case).
With a victory in Columbus once morest the Crew on Saturday, the Bleu-blanc-noir would confirm their 8th place and host a play-off match once morest the team in 9th place. With a draw or a defeat, Montrealers would be at the mercy of the results that concern them, namely those of the meetings between Nashville and the Red Bulls, between New York City and Chicago as well as between Charlotte and Miami, who will face each other once more , this time in North Carolina.
All Eastern teams’ games will begin at 6 p.m. (EDT) on Saturday. Those of the Western teams will follow at 9 p.m. The playoffs will get underway on October 25 and 26 with the play-off matches.
