For the 3 Canadian teams, they all enter this stretch with different aspirations. For the Vancouver Whitecaps, their goal is simple - finish as high up the Supporters’ Shield standings as possible and win an MLS Cup, as they look to avenge a 2025 season where they were close to winning it all but left short of winning some of the biggest prizes on offer. 

Meanwhile, Toronto FC has found some stability after some recent signings, although wins have been a bit more elusive than hoped - as for CF Montréal, their focus might quickly turn to the Canadian Championship with their playoff hopes dwindling

Ben, Brendan and Alex chat about that, and other Canadian domestic club matters, in this episode of the Northern Fútbol Podcast.
