Clash of two very different types of teams: <st1:City><st1lace>Montreal</st1lace></st1:City> tough defensive team, with great midfield section (Di Lorenzo) that excels on the counter-attack. In good form, and trying to end season at home with the W, before playing final game on the road against <st1:City><st1lace>Rochester</st1lace></st1:City> (a team they’ve dominated all season long). The outside chance of finishing first is still there, 3 points behind <st1:City><st1lace>Portland</st1lace></st1:City> with one game in hand. <st1:City><st1lace>Atlanta</st1lace></st1:City> is also in excellent late season form. In the last seven games, have compiled some impressive stats, with 5 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw. One also has to take a look at their goal differential within that stretch, a whopping 14 goals scored (four games with a 3 goal output), and 8 against. Unlike <st1:City><st1lace>Montreal</st1lace></st1:City>, who thrives on defense, <st1:City><st1lace>Atlanta</st1lace></st1:City> is very offensive minded, and has legitimate goal scorers at both the midfield and forward position. Important absence is David Hayes, who co-leads in team scoring with 7 goals. Last time these two faced each other was on the 21<SUP>st</SUP> of April in <st1:City><st1lace>Atlanta</st1lace></st1:City>, in a game that ended 2-2.<o></o>

It’s the last home game for the Impact, so you know fan support will be at its best. Both sides playing well, and even though high scoring <st1:City><st1lace>Atlanta</st1lace></st1:City> is enticing at +0.5, I trust the Impact defense to hold when provided with a lead.<o></o>

<st1:City><st1lace>Montreal</st1lace></st1:City> -0.5 +105 (2 units)<o></o>
