Runaway Major League Soccer Eastern Conference leaders Toronto FC play fellow Canadians Impact Montreal on Thursday in a match-up that already looks a foregone conclusion. Our free OddsDigger Toronto FC vs Impact Montreal preview examines a battle between one the favourites to win the overall championship and one of the also rans. The home team’s sensational record at their own stadium has had a distinct impact on the bookies’ latest football odds. Let’s take a look at how things are likely to pan out between these north of the border neighbours.

The division topping home team are on a six-game winning run in the lead up to today’s Toronto FC vs Impact Montreal betting tips. Greg Vanney has watched his troops fight through eleven consecutive fixtures without tasting defeat – a sequence that has allowed them to open up an eleven point lead over New York City in second spot.

After a largely positive August, the away side are in the midst of a terrible September, losing all three matches this month ahead of our Toronto FC vs Impact Montreal predictions. Impact had harboured hopes of making the play-offs, though a six-point gap is probably too much to make up with so few games remaining.

The teams met as recently as August 27th in a reverse fixture to Thursday’s. That day a goal from Jozy Altidore sandwiched in between a Sebastian Giovinco double handed Toronto an emphatic 3-1 victory over their hosts. In five meetings last season, the sides won two games each, drawing the other 2-2 in Montreal.

Toronto FC vs Impact Montreal Prediction and Betting Advice

Anything other than a home win on Thursday would be a real shock – the title favourites have only dropped six points from a possible forty-two at the BMO Field before our Toronto FC vs Impact Montreal picks. They have scored fourteen in their last four alone on their own patch, making them a frightening prospect for any visiting team. Impact have suffered from a severe bout of travel sickness in 2017, winning just twice in thirteen away from home. Sebastian Giovinco and Jozy Altidore are the Reds leading goalscorers with fifteen and thirteen goals respectively this season and having both found the net a few weeks ago against Montreal, they will be confident of bagging a few more against them this week.

In their last five victories, the Reds have managed to breach the opposing defences to score in both halves. They like to get their business done early, so backing them to register in both 45s again is a smart choice for our free MLS football tips. Montreal haven’t kept a clean sheet in five and with Chris Duvall and Laurent Ciman looking a little shaky, I don’t think they have the strength to keep their hosts out until the second half. Toronto have scored three goals or more in seven of their last eight outings – in total that’s a highly prolific twenty-six goals in 720 minutes of football, meaning they score on average every 27 minutes. William Hill’s odds of almost evens for our tip are a reflection of the terrific value they offer for the match.
