Columbus Crew defeated CF Montréal 2-0 on the road, with Mohamed Farsi scoring in the 57th minute and Brais Méndez adding a second in the 68th. Our model favored a Montréal win at 39 percent probability, and that pick missed. Montréal had won their previous head-to-head meeting but could not replicate that result, managing no shots on target as Columbus controlled the second half.
