Two clubs in the Eastern Conference of MLS will do battle today in a league match between the Montreal Impact and Orlando City. The first-division clash scheduled for 4 p.m. ET will be held at Olympic Stadium in Montreal and can be live streamed here.

What They're Saying

Montreal Impact midfielder Calum Mallace (via MLSsoccer.com): "Frank [Klopas] talks about the new players we brought in and everyone's buying into the system and everyone's working together as a team. I think we're definitely in a better place this year right now than we were last year."

Orlando City manager Adrian Heath: "We will evaluate things as we go this week. Cristian [Higuita] and Carlos [Rivas] are certainly responding to treatment, but we have to consider if it's too much of a gamble at this stage. I think I will have a team in mind by Wednesday."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Mallace left his footprints on Week 3's scoreless draw with the New England Revolution. In two appearances this season, the 25-year-old is averaging two tackles and four interceptions.

Montreal Impact's Projected Lineup (4-4-2 Diamond): Bush; Tola, Cabrera, Soumare, Lapare; Donadel, Reo-Coker, Duka, Bernier; Oduro, McInerney

Orlando City's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Ricketts; Boden, Collin, Ledger, Hines; Kaka, Okugo, Cascio, Avila; Ribeiro, Mwanga
