Kickoff
Kickoff is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. at Saputo Stadium. The match marks the first time the Earthquakes will play in Montreal since Sept. 20, 2014.


Broadcast Information
The game will be aired live on CSN California, 1590 KLIV (English) and 1370 KZSF (Spanish).



Looking for a Win
The Earthquakes are searching for their first-ever win against the Impact (0-2-2). They are also looking to pick up their first road points ever in Montreal, where they are 0-2-0 all time.


Clutch vs. Canada
San Jose is heading into Montreal with an undefeated record (2-0-0) against Canadian clubs this season after defeating both Toronto FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC. Their only road victory so far this year also came north of the border, with a 2-1 win over Vancouver on Aug. 12. 



No Quincy
The Earthquakes will likely be without starting forward Quincy Amarikwa, who appeared to suffer a devastating leg injury on Saturday vs. Sporting Kansas City. Amarikwa is currently third on the team in assists (3) and tied for third with three goals. His absence will likely give Henok Goitom his second career MLS start.


Who Will Join Wondo?
Forward Chris Wondolowski is the only active Earthquakes player to score against Montreal, finding the net twice in four career appearances against the club. Will another Quakes player join him on the scoreboard Wednesday?


Cordell Eyeing Career Milestone
With an appearance against the Impact, midfielder Cordell Cato will play in his 100th game in MLS. Cato would become the ninth current Earthquakes player to reach the milestone.
