What happened: Entering MLS in 2020, Nashville SC built an expansion roster featuring an MLS MVP and lifted the 2025 U.S. Open Cup before adding the 2026 Supporters' Shield with three matches to spare, per Tom Bogert.

Why it matters: Transitioning from an expansion build to consecutive trophy campaigns in 2025 and 2026 positions Nashville atop the league table for the 2026 MLS postseason. The club has paired 2.1 goals scored with 0.7 goals allowed per match this season while tying the MLS single-season record with a 10-game home streak.

By the numbers: Open Cup, 2026 Supporters' Shield on 70 points), 2.1 goals scored and 0.7 allowed per game in 2026, and a 2-0 live lead at CF Montréal.

What to watch: Nashville SC finishes out the remaining minutes of Saturday's live match at Stade Saputo holding a 2-0 lead over CF Montréal. MLS weekend action continues Sunday at 9:00 PM ET when LAFC hosts the LA Galaxy at BMO Stadium.
