Know Your Opponent | Do not give into the persist underrating of the Montreal Impact

The last time the Montréal Impact were in Portland, they drew. The time before that, they won. Thus constitutes the entire Major League Soccer history of the Impact at Providence Park, something Portland Timbers fans may remember as Saturday’s return visit approaches (8pm PT, FOX 12 PLUS).

Although they have gone on some memorable runs in MLS’ playoffs and CONCACAF Champions League, Montréal has rarely seemed an item of concern in the thoughts of Timbers Army members. Yet in two visits to Portland in league play, the Impact has never lost. Something, each time, has kept the Timbers from getting over the hump.
