MONTREAL — Forward Kwadwo Opoku isn’t complaining as CF Montreal gears up for a meeting with the New York Red Bulls under scorching-hot conditions Wednesday at Saputo Stadium.

Environment Canada issued a heat warning as temperatures reach daily highs of 35 C and rise above 40 with the humidex amid a hot spell from Tuesday through Thursday in Quebec."I love this weather. The other times — January, February, oh goodness. December? Oh, it's the worst, I do not like it at all,” Opoku said Tuesday before practice. “But this one is really good. The sun is shining.”

Three of four matches, however, were draws. That includes a 0-0 result at home to Western Conference-leading Real Salt Lake last Saturday as Montreal failed to score on 11 shot attempts. Opoku, Toye, Matias Coccaro and Lassi Lappalainen returned to action Saturday after long absences due to injury. Josef Martinez did not feature against Salt Lake but is expected to take the pitch soon.

Swedish star Emil Forsberg is also questionable Wednesday with a foot injury. New York lost 1-0 at New England Revolution on June 8 before playing to a 0-0 draw at home against Nashville SC last Saturday without Forsberg in the lineup.
