Title race on the line as league giants collide
A top-of-the-table clash sees second-place Cavalry FC host leaders Forge with the winner set to take control of the Canadian Premier League title race.
Cavalry FC enter this fixture in second place on 34 points, knowing a victory would move them to the summit. Tommy Wheeldon Jr’s side have shown resilience recently, losing just once in their last five outings, though they were held to a 1-1 draw by Supra du Quebec in their most recent away trip. They return to Alberta looking to replicate the clinical form shown in their last home match, a 5-0 demolition of York United.
Forge sit top of the table on 35 points and arrive in blistering form. Bobby Smyrniotis has led his side to six consecutive league victories, including a recent 1-0 away win against Vancouver FC secured by a Mo Babouli header. The Hammers have been defensively resolute throughout August, conceding only a single goal during their current winning streak as they chase a league-record seventh straight win.
