MONTREAL – FC Montreal will look to build on its second win of the season when it faces Saint Louis FC on Wednesday at 5 p.m. ET at the Turf Field at Stade Saputo.

The Bleu-blanc-noir is back on the field only four days after finding its second win of the season, a 4-2 victory against the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in which forward Anthony Jackson-Hamel scored a brace, on top of goals by winger Alessandro Riggi and midfielder Marco Dominguez. It was the first time this season Montreal scored four goals in a game.

Beyond this positive result, in the last few games, the team started to find a groove after the first half of the season.

“It goes beyond the last win, its 2-3 games in a row where we played well,” said defender Zachary Sukunda. “We are confident. In the last game, we scored a goal right from the beginning. It’s time for us to blossom, we have more experience and we play well.”

Wednesday evening will mark the first meeting between USL expamsion clubs FC Montreal and Saint Louis FC. The team from the State of Missouri is in eighth place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 4-6-6. Saint Louis is one of the only teams that has had more success on the road (3-1-3) then at home this season (1-5-3), and is coming off a 3-1 defeat to the Richmond Kickers in its last outing.

Saint Louis has been led this season by Jermie Lynch and Bryan Gaul, both of whom have scored four goals.

Admission to the game is free and it will also be available via streaming atwww.impactmontreal.com/fcmontreal.
