“We really, really believed after a stylish, ruthless win at Chicago last week. But they were never in it against Montreal, and their attacking deficiencies are becoming difficult to ignore.”

“RSL has suffered numerous injuries this season, but Chris Schuler's absence due to knee surgery has cut the deepest. The back line has suffered in the interim, though the midfield provided little help in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Montreal. Schuler is expected back in around two weeks.”

“RSL stumbled to another bizarre road loss, a heavy defeat in Montreal following a 4-0 loss in New England earlier this season. The club welcomes Jason Kreis back to Rio Tinto Stadium for the first time this weekend.”
