Prediction: 1-1
Columbus Crew
There will be fireworks when Cincinnati and Columbus Crew face each other at TQL Stadium in the Major League Soccer. Following back-to-back wins over Chicago Fire and Toronto, Cincinnati shared the spoils with Houston Dynamo in their last league fixture. The Orange and Blue are high on spirits ahead of the visit of Columbus, but the hosts face an uphill task in Saturday’s clash. All Bailey, Harris, and van der Werff are likely to miss the game through injuries.
Caleb Porter’s troops head into the match following back-to-back draws with Austin and New England Revolution. Columbus are not regarded as good travellers, and seeing that they failed to find the net in the previous two away games, a low-scoring affair is on the cards at TQL Stadium. It has to be noted that Milton Valenzuela has joined Wright-Phillips, Williams, and Morris in the recovery room.

Kendall Waston is yet another Costa Rican footballer who plays in MLS. The Vancouver Whitecaps centre back started his senior career at Sarprissa of Costa Rica and he played for the likes of Carmelita, Nacional, Bayamon, UCR and Perez Zeledon (on loan) in the past as well.
Waston moved to MLS in the summer of 2014, signing a deal with Vancouver Whitecaps. The Costa Rica international scored only two goals in 11 appearances for the club in the 2014 season, but the club chiefs decided to keep hold of him.

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.
