Minnesota United vs CF Montreal Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer
by Erik Gibbs in Major League Soccer Picks
Minnesota United is set to host CF Montréal at Allianz Field on Saturday in their 2025 Major League Soccer home opener. This will mark the first time these two teams meet at Allianz Field, with their only previous encounter in Minnesota taking place at TCF Bank Stadium in 2018, where the Loons secured a 2-0 victory. Both sides will be looking to bounce back after suffering narrow defeats in their season openers—Minnesota falling 1-0 to Los Angeles FC, while CF Montréal conceded late in a 3-2 loss to Atlanta United.
Minnesota enters this match looking to avoid back-to-back losses to begin the season, something they haven’t done since 2021 when they started with four straight defeats before recovering to make the playoffs. Historically, the Loons have been strong at home, especially in recent times. Including the 2024 playoffs, they have won their last three MLS matches at Allianz Field, and they will be eager to maintain that momentum in front of their home fans.
Offensively, Minnesota has struggled in recent outings, failing to score in their last two matches against MLS opposition. Despite this, they have been resilient defensively, often keeping games close, with their last three losses coming by just a single goal. Their ability to control possession and create chances will be crucial against a CF Montréal side that has shown vulnerability when conceding first.

Our Minnesota United vs CF Montreal Prediction
CF Montréal enters this contest hoping to avoid consecutive league defeats, something they managed to steer clear of during the latter stages of the 2024 season. However, their track record against Minnesota is not promising, with three losses in their four all-time meetings against the Loons. Their last encounter in 2023, however, saw them secure an emphatic 4-0 victory at Saputo Stadium, a result they will look to replicate.
Montreal’s defensive frailties and lack of a consistent attacking threat make them an underdog in this fixture. Historically, they have struggled when conceding first, having gone winless in their last nine regular-season matches when falling behind. They will need a disciplined performance to challenge a Minnesota side eager to get their season on track.
Given Minnesota's defensive strength at home and Montreal’s slow starts to the season, the Loons are likely to dominate possession and create multiple scoring opportunities. While Montreal may find a way onto the scoresheet, their defensive lapses could prove costly against a determined Minnesota side looking to secure their first win of the campaign. Our prediction for Minnesota United vs. CF Montreal: Minnesota to win.
