Our prediction for this MLS match:
Following back-to-back draws with Philadelphia Union and CF Montreal, Columbus Crew will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face Cincinnati on Sunday morning. The Crew are undefeated in the previous four MLS games, which is surely fuelling fans with optimism ahead of Cincinnati’s visit. With Rudy Camacho being the only absentee in Wilfried Nancy’s team, home win should be considered.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Austin and Toronto. Cincinnati sit atop the Eastern Conference standings, but beating Columbus at Lower.com Field is easier said than done. Given Cincinnati’s negative record at the venue, we are tempted to place our bets on the home team. The likes of Miazga, Orellano, and Kann are rated doubtful for the visiting side. In their last meeting in the Major League Soccer, the two teams played out a goalless draw.
Highlighted Team (Columbus Crew):

Columbus Crew are an American soccer club based in Columbus, Ohio. The Black & Gold participate in the Eastern Conference and in 2008 they won both the conference and the MLS CUP final. Columbus Crew defeated New York Red Bulls in the MLS Cup final, with the likes of Moreno, Marshall and Hejduk scoring for the Black & Gold in the title game.
The club welcome their rivals at Mapfre Stadium, the venue which was opened on May, 15 1999. The current capacity of the stadium is 19.968 and it has to be noted that Mapfre Stadium is the first soccer-specific venue ever built for a MLS club.
A number of high-profile players were part of Columbus Crew in the past, but Guillermo Barros Schelotto is the most famous footballer that wore the black and yellow shirt. Schelotto played for Columbus Crew from 2007 to 2010 and during his spell with the Mapfre Stadium outfit the Black & Gold won the aforementioned MLS Cup.
