Bjorn Johnsen remains absent due to a foot injury after missing last week's game due to illness. Tomas Giraldo also misses out due to a hamstring injury. Djorde Mihailovic and Kamal Miller both miss out with ankle and leg injuries. Lassi Lappalainen is ruled out due to health and safety protocol. Charlotte will continue to be without young Brazilian forward Vinicius Mello following surgery on his left foot, who they will be anxious to get back to full fitness as soon as possible. Christian Fuchs is also a doubt with a right thigh issue. Adam Armour also remains out with a knee injury, and Pablo Sisniega with concussion.
Despite sitting just two places and three points ahead of Charlotte, Montreal will be slight favourites going into this weekend's clash. Both sides have had mixed fortunes lately, with Charlotte being in slightly better form, and with key man Djordje Mihailovic expected to miss out for Montreal, a draw seems the most likely result. 1:1
