DC United and CF Montreal have both had mixed results in the first part of the 2016 MLS season; however, it is the team from the US capital, not the Canadian side, that currently sits in a playoff position. The two will play at Audi Field on Saturday, with the Black and Reds being favored in the pre-match betting odds.
However, DC United is coming off another lackluster performance at home; they also entered the match as favorites against St. Louis City but ended up drawing 1-1. It's becoming increasingly common for DC not to win at home; they haven't won in 17 of their last 20 home matches.
Throughout their match against St. Louis, DC United looked like they were defending by packing too many players into the midfield. The flanks were almost completely exposed on every retreat, and St. Louis focused their attacks on those areas. That's how the first goal came about. It was only when they were trailing that DC United improved; Even so, they had to rely on a brilliant late strike from Peglow, from outside the box, collecting the rebound from a corner to salvage a draw.

Our DC United vs CF Montreal Prediction
The experienced Israeli striker has been DC United's main goalscorer this season, but surprisingly, neither his hat trick against the NY Red Bulls nor his recent goal against the Chicago Fire resulted in a victory for DC United.
DC United's defense looked exposed on both flanks; Montreal, despite its weaknesses, is a team that favors quick transitions. As always, Owusu, the league's regular goalscorer, could appear in the middle to finish off a low cross. It's worth betting on Montreal to get points in DC.
Our prediction for DC United vs CF Montreal is: CF Montreal to win or draw.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
