Goal predicts the MLS conference finals
(Eric Bolte) TORONTO FC vs. MONTREAL IMPACT (aggregate predictions)
Ives Galarcep: Toronto 3-1 Montreal
The organized Montreal defense could keep things close in the first leg but containing Sebastian Giovinco and Jozy Altidore over two legs will be too much. Steven Beitashour will be key in containing Ignacio Piatti as the TFC defense keeps Montreal in check.
Jon Arnold: Toronto 3-2 Montreal
The Impact's recent rise is impressive, but it's going to be tough for any team to deal with Giovinco, Altidore, Osorio and Co. the way they've been working together in the recent past.
Thomas Floyd: Toronto 3-2 Montreal
