CF Montréal host Nashville SC at Stade Saputo in Montreal on October 24, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 17:30 local time. The Major League Soccer fixture brings together teams at opposite ends of the supplied rankings: Montréal are 15th and Nashville are first. The stakes are high for both sides. A Nashville victory would secure the Supporters’ Shield, awarded to the team with the best MLS regular-season record, while defeat would mathematically eliminate Montréal from the tournament. The visitors arrive with four wins in their last five matches, but Montréal have an opportunity at home to disrupt their opponents’ plans.

CF Montréal Recent Form and Key Stats

CF Montréal drew 1-1 with Forge on October 21, extending a five-match sequence that comprises one win, two draws and two defeats. Across those five games, they have averaged 1.2 goals scored and 1.6 conceded. Their MLS season record stands at six wins, seven draws and 17 losses, with averages of 1.2 goals scored and 2.0 conceded per match.

Keeping Nashville out will be a particular challenge for the hosts. Montréal have conceded at least once in each of their last 18 matches, including their last 15 in Major League Soccer. The home side’s difficulty in making home advantage count has contributed to their position heading into this fixture. Against an opponent averaging more than two goals per league match, breaking that run of concessions would be a significant change from their recent results.

Montréal’s games have also regularly featured action after the interval. There has been at least one second-half goal in each of their last 10 home matches and in 25 of their last 27 matches overall. In MLS specifically, that has happened in 19 of their last 21 games. These figures describe total goals in the matches, rather than goals scored by Montréal alone, but they show how often their fixtures have remained open after half-time.

Nashville SC Recent Form and Key Stats

Nashville SC travel to Montréal after a 1-1 draw with SJ Earthquakes on October 18. That result followed a strong run: their last five matches have produced four wins, one draw and no defeats. Nashville have averaged 2.8 goals scored and 0.4 conceded across that spell, giving them a markedly stronger recent scoring and defensive record than their hosts.

The visitors’ full MLS record is similarly convincing, with 20 wins, seven draws and three defeats. They have averaged 2.1 goals scored and 0.8 conceded per league match. Nashville have also scored 14 goals in their last five games, matching their recent 2.8-goal average. Their challenge now is to carry that output into a fixture in which a win would secure the Supporters’ Shield.

Nashville’s away results provide further encouragement: they have taken points from six of their last seven trips. They have also avoided being behind at half-time in their last 13 away matches and in their last 19 MLS matches overall. More recently, they have led at the break in each of their last five league games. Second-half goals have featured frequently in their fixtures too, occurring in 19 of their last 21 matches and 18 of their last 20 in MLS. As with Montréal’s figures, those second-half totals refer to goals by either team.

CF Montréal vs Nashville SC Match Analysis

The contrast between the sides is clear in their recent records. Montréal have won once in five matches and continue to concede, while Nashville are unbeaten across their last five and have paired a 2.8-goal scoring average with a 0.4-goal conceded average. The visitors’ league record and their ability to collect points away from home strengthen their case, although their most recent outing ended in a draw rather than a win.

Past meetings add to Nashville’s advantage without deciding this match in advance. Across 14 previous meetings, Nashville have recorded eight wins to Montréal’s two. The supplied summary of the last five head-to-head matches gives Montréal no wins, two draws and three defeats, with averages of 0.4 goals scored and 1.8 conceded. The latest meeting finished 1-0 on July 23, 2026. That narrow scoreline is a reminder that a gap in form does not guarantee an easy contest.

For Montréal, the immediate question is whether they can improve on a defensive run of 18 successive matches with a goal conceded. For Nashville, the task is to turn strong recent form and an impressive away points record into the victory they need. The supplied win probabilities put the visitors ahead at 47%, compared with 27% for Montréal and 25% for a draw. Taken together, the league records, recent scoring figures and head-to-head results make Nashville the stronger choice, while Montréal’s home setting and the possibility of another close meeting leave room for resistance.
