Forge FC vs Pacific FC Preview and Team News
Forge FC Team News
Forge’s 17-match unbeaten streak continued with a 1-1 road draw against Atletico Ottawa in the last round of the CPL. They could’ve claimed a narrow victory, but a 93rd-minute penalty from Ballou Tabla ended their hopes of taking all three points.
Despite the draw, Forge sit second in the table with 28 points. They’re one of the main contenders to finish first in the standings and, given their latest results, perhaps the most consistent team in the championship.
The club’s top scorer, Brian Wright, wasn’t in the starting squad against Atletico Ottawa, and his availability remains uncertain. Khadim Kane and Malik Owolabi-Belewu, both of whom were substituted in the first half, are also doubtful.
Forge FC predicted lineup vs Pacific FC (4-3-3): Koleilat; Paton, Nimick, Bruno, Rama; Jensen, Achinioti-Jonsson, Bekker; Ampomah, Babouli, Jevremovic.
Pacific FC Team News
Pacific finally ended their dreadful seven-game winless run with a five-goal thriller (3-2) as they beat HFX Wanderers. It was Yann Regis Toualy who delivered a phenomenal performance, scoring a hat-trick and bringing his side a long-awaited victory.
This was Pacific’s first win since May 10. However, the visitors are still in a difficult situation, sitting sixth in the Canadian Premier League with 12 points.
Aly Ndom and Yann Toualy are tied as the team’s top scorers with four goals each. The club will need them both to step up in the upcoming fixture. On the injury front, Pacific have no notable absences to report.
Pacific FC predicted lineup vs Forge FC (3-4-3): Melvin; Machado, Ndom, Lajeunesse; Chung, Browning, Daniels, Mukumbilwa; Heard, Bustos, Toualy.

Forge FC vs Pacific FC Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Forge to Win
- Odds: -189 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Forge FC 3-1 Pacific FC
Forge’s superb form is worth mentioning. The hosts haven’t lost since February 12, showcasing quality on both sides of the ball with strong defensive and offensive performances.
Additionally, Forge have won six of the previous eight head-to-head meetings with their opponents. Pacific, on the other hand, remain inconsistent, and while their recent clash provided a glimmer of hope, James Merriman’s men still need a massive improvement in every aspect of the field.
Forge are the favourites here, and while Pacific may put up a good fight, the hosts should clinch the ultimate victory.
Forge FC vs Pacific FC Betting Tip
- Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
- Odds: -118 (Tonybet)
Forge are the second-highest scoring team in the CPL, behind Atletico Ottawa, with 24 goals. They’re extremely good at creating chances, frequently producing over 1.5 xG, while Pacific don’t have a reliable defence.
Four of Forge’s last five matches have featured at least three goals. Pacific’s recent games have also been high-scoring, with eight and five total goals in their last two fixtures.
The visitors should also get some opportunities on the counterattack. Thus, we’re expecting an exciting encounter with a lot of action.
