CF Montreal vs Leon Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Leagues Cup 2025

This will be the first-ever meeting between these clubs.

CF Montréal are all set to battle Club León in the league phase fixture of the 2025 Leagues Cup. The interesting match between the two teams is ready to take place at the Stadium Saputo.

CF Montréal have not been able to perform as per their standards this season. They are placed last on the Eastern Conference MLS points table, and there is a need for them to step up here if they want to come up with some good performances in the Leagues Cup. Even though it will be a home game for them, the MLS team will not be feeling very confident.

Club León have also not been able to begin their new season as positively as they might have wanted to. In three Liga MX 2025-26 matches, they have lost two and have secured a single win. The upcoming game against CF Montreal is going to be a new challenge for them as it is going to be the first-ever meeting between the two sides.

Players to Watch

James Rodriguez (Club Leon)

The 34-year-old Colombian midfielder is one of the most important players in the squad for Club Leon. James Rodriguez is going to play a crucial part in controlling the midfield and also help his side in the final third. In three Liga MX games this season, he has a goal to his name.
