MLS returns with a fresh set of fixtures as CF Montreal play host to New York City FC at the Exploria Stadium on Wednesday.

CF Montreal head into the game fresh off beating Inter Miami on Sunday, while New York City FC claimed a 2-1 victory over DC United.

CF Montreal returned to winning ways on Sunday as they claimed a hard-earned 1-0 victory over bottom-dwellers Inter Miami.

In a cagey affair in Montreal, Canadian midfielder Mathieu Choiniere scored the only goal of the game to condemn Inter Miami to a fifth straight loss.

After winning only one of their opening six outings this campaign, Wilfried Nancy’s men have been in decent form in recent weeks. They head into Wednesday’s game unbeaten in their last four outings, picking up two wins and two draws.

The slight resurgence has seen CF Montreal rise to eighth place in the Eastern Conference, level on points with New York Red Bulls in the final playoff spot.

New York City, on the other hand, picked up a second straight win last time out as they fought back from one goal down to beat DC United 2-1 on home turf.

After falling behind in the ninth minute, Keaton Parks restored parity in the 84th minute, before Thiago Andrade completed the comeback in the fifth minute of extra time.

Ronny Diella’s men have now picked up three wins from their last four outings. Their fine run of results has seen them surge to fifth place in the log, one point ahead of Wednesday’s hosts.
