The Story:

Orlando City heads to Canada to square off against CF Montréal, where they will seek to continue their strong form on the road. The Lions have yet to lose on the road in 2023, the lone team remaining in the Eastern Conference to drop a result away from home this season.

Saturday's match will jumpstart a three-game stretch of away games for the Lions.

The Lions are coming off a 2-0 victory over the LA Galaxy that saw Ercan Kara score his first goal in MLS play in 2023, while Goalkeeper Pedro Gallese extended his clean sheet record to 25 across all competitions.

Quote of the Week:

"[Montréal is] a team that has a lot of physicality, speed, they're very vertical. They're very bold in their structure. We know them, they know us and I think it's going to be a matter of the intention of winning that is going to decide the game. We are two teams that know each other pretty well."

- Head Coach Oscar Pareja
