Our prediction for this MLS match:
Lower.com Field will host Saturday’s game between Columbus Crew and Vancouver Whitecaps, the two teams that have big ambitions for the 2025 MLS campaign. Columbus made a flying start to the new season, but they are on a six-game winless run ahead of Vancouver’s visit. With Malte Amundsen limping off with injury in a 5-1 loss to Inter Miami, Cesar Ruvalcaba is widely expected to return to the starting XI.
The Canadian outfit, on the other hand, defeated Seattle Sounders 3-0 at the weekend to retain top position in the Western Conference, but they head into Saturday’s clash with a severely-weakened squad. As both Sebastian Berhalter and Brian White are on international duty with USA, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Ohio.
Highlighted Team (Vancouver Whitecaps):

Vancouver Whitecaps are yet another Canadian side that compete in Major League Soccer. Vancouver began play in the USA top flight in 2011 and one year later they became the first Canadian outfit to book their place in the MLS Cup play-offs. However, star-studded Los Angeles Galaxy proved to be a big catch for the Whitecaps in the knockout round. Vancouver, though, did remarkably well to win the Canadian Championship in 2015, with the team beating Montreal Impact in the title game.
In 2016 they made it to the final of the tournament as well, but Toronto FC eventually won the trophy. The Whitecaps are owned by Greg Kerfoot, Steve Luczo, Jeff Mallett and Steve Steve Nash, the former NBA star, and they play their home matches at BC Place. Speaking of MLS games, the capacity of the venue is 22.120 and you should know that the stadium was opened back in 1983. The Caps wear white shirts and white shorts when playing at home, while the colour of their away kit is blue.
