Bojan Krkic and Thierry Henry face a massive challenge against Philadelphia Union's elite defense

Last Wednesday Montreal Impact ended a four-game streak without winning when they defeated Columbus Crew. They made quite a statement, because the provided Columbus their first defeat at Mapfre Stadium in the whole season. Bojan Krkic scored the winning goal. Now, Thierry Henry's side will try to extend their good moment when visiting the Subaru Park to face Philadelphia Union.

Jim Curtin's side is strong at the backfield. On their last ten games they have just allowed six goals. From that perspective, it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that the Pennsylvania's team is now second on the Eastern standings. Moreover, Philadelphia accumulates the best scored/conceded difference in goals on the East, and the second best record on the whole MLS.

Montreal showed improvement in Ohio. Although the game was controlled by Columbus, They were able to stop Gyasi Zardes and Pedro Santos to outscored them. In this sense, Henry's team has the chance to equalize Philly's, a team whose attack isn't as strong as their defensive power.

Both teams have a recent antecedent. Just five weeks ago Philadelphia provided a terrible defeat to Montreal in a 1-4 away win. Since that game, many things have changed. Specially, Bojan's confidence in himself. The Catalan forward believes that under the guidance of his former teammate Henry he can get back to a European-like level. Scoring against Philadelphia could booster that confidence
