Nashville SC has achieved its best start to an MLS season, accumulating 10 points, scoring 8 goals, and boasting a goal difference of +5 through their first five matches.

Defensively, Nashville has recorded three clean sheets this season, with goalkeeper Joe Willis reaching 70 career clean sheets, placing him fifth among active MLS goalkeepers.

The team has yet to concede a goal at home this season, aiming to extend their clean sheet streak to three games.

The squad features contributions from seven different goal scorers, with Ahmed Qasem leading the way with two goals, while Hany Mukhtar and others have each netted once.

Hany Mukhtar recently made history during his 150th regular season appearance, achieving his 49th and 50th assists, which ties him with Roy Lassiter for seventh in all-time goal contributions.

Nashville has lost only one of their last five matches and is looking to achieve a three-match winning streak for the first time since June 2023.

Despite their recent success, the team has struggled when trailing at halftime, failing to win any of their last ten matches under such circumstances.

Nashville SC will host CF Montreal on March 23, 2025, in a Major League Soccer match, with both teams currently facing challenges in the Eastern Conference.

Montreal sits 13th in the Eastern Conference, struggling offensively with only two goals scored so far this season and at risk of going winless in their first five matches for the first time since 2017.

Nashville will be missing players due to injuries and international duties, including Maximus Ekk and Tyler Boyd, while Montreal's key signing Giacomo Vrioni will also be sidelined due to injury.

In their previous five encounters at GEODIS Park, Nashville has maintained an unbeaten record against Montreal, winning 4-1 in their last matchup at the venue.

Sports Mole predicts a close match favoring Nashville SC with a final score of 1-0 against CF Montreal.
