We said: CF Montreal 1-2 Columbus Crew

 Trading away a couple of centre-backs in Camacho and Kamal Miller earlier this season has left Le CFM relatively thin at that position, and fatigue could play a factor for that backline this weekend given how much they still have to play for and so much defensive inexperience on this roster outside of their new back three. Nancy knows this Montreal side well and should be able to create an effective game plan to expose his former team on the counter.
