HFX Wanderers vs Forge tickets Canadian Premier League

Sitting early in the Canadian Premier League schedule, this was the first of four times HFX Wanderers FC and Forge FC crossed paths this season, and the opening leg of two visits Forge would pay to the Wanderer Grounds in Halifax. It kicked off on Friday 1 May 2026 at 18:00, an early-evening start at a compact 6,200-capacity ground where getting in and out is quick and hassle-free. The hosts came into it under some pressure, having gone four matches without a win, facing an opponent that would prove awkward across the campaign: the two later played out a goalless draw here in August, while their June encounter at Tim Hortons Field ended 1-0 to Forge. A tight, familiar meeting between sides who saw plenty of each other in 2026.
