Montreal locks horns against San Luis in a must-win encounter.

The Mexican contingent Atlético San Luis will begin their Leagues Cup odyssey against CF Montreal on Canadian soil. Following their disappointing group stage exit in 2023, Domenec Torrent will be keen to defy all odds to propel his side into the knockout stages. San Luis kicked off their Liga MX campaign with a narrow win over Club America. They settled for a draw against Mazatlán and Tijuana. They were handed the first defeat of their season by Pachuca after going down 2-0.

On the other hand, the specter of a 4-1 drubbing by Orlando City continues to loom over CF Montreal in their Leagues Cup opener. The team’s recent MLS form also signals alarming issues for Laurent Courtois. In their previous five MLS fixtures, Montreal secured a solitary win after settling for draws against NY Red Bulls and Vancouver. They also suffered defeats at the hands of both New York City and Toronto. This is a must-win game for Montreal to keep their hopes alive to make it to the next round.

Expect an action-packed and electrifying clash as anything less than three points would prove fatal for Montreal. San Luis, on the flip side, will be keen to kickstart their Leagues Cup campaign with a win over the Canadian-based outfit.
