In their recent match against Cincinnati, the Black and Red faced several key absences. Christian Benteke, their top scorer, was sidelined due to a thigh injury, while Mohanad Jeahze and Russell Canouse also missed out for the same reason. Additionally, goalkeeper Tyler Miller remained out with a shoulder issue, and Steve Birnbaum was unlikely to feature due to a knee injury.
Despite these setbacks, Alex Bono put in a stellar performance, making seven saves and securing his first clean sheet of the MLS season. Jackson Hopkins made his first start in the league since September, while Matti Peltola impressed with five tackles and 13 duels won.
On the other side, in their match against Montreal, the Herons were without Lionel Messi, who sustained a knock in their CONCACAF Champions Cup clash with Nashville SC. Robbie Robinson was undergoing evaluation, and Benjamin Cremaschi was sidelined with a sports hernia. Additionally, Franco Negri, Ian Fray, and Facundo Farias were doubtful due to knee injuries.
Despite these setbacks, Leonardo Campana and Jordi Alba found the net for the first time in the 2024 MLS campaign during their defeat against Le CFM. Messi returned for their match against Nashville, contributing to a 3-1 victory alongside Luis Suarez and Robert Taylor as they advanced to the CCC quarter-finals.
