Deadspin | Montreal's Prince Owusu to return vs. league-leading Nashville SC

Montreal’s Prince Owusu is set to return when CF Montreal hosts Nashville SC after an absence caused by yellow-card accumulation, in a key matchup shaped by Nashville’s strong run. The game comes with Nashville leading the league and hosting CF Montreal on Wednesday night, following a 1-0 win over Atlanta United on the Shakur Mohammed goal in the 79th minute. That result extended Nashville’s unbeaten streak to nine matches (7-0-2) and grew its lead to four points over the Vancouver Whitecaps and San Jose Earthquakes, though Vancouver holds a match in hand. CF Montreal enters with a 4-8-3 record and 15 points, sitting three points behind the ninth-place playoff spot in the East. Owusu, who leads Montreal with nine goals, missed the Toronto game that ended 0-0, where Montreal generated three shots on goal. Nashville is unbeaten in eight home matches (7-0-1), while Montreal is 1-6-1 on the road; the last four series meetings are 2-0-2 for Nashville.
