Prediction: 1-2
Columbus Crew
DC United and Columbus Crew go head to head at Audi Field in what is expected to be a close MLS game. The capital club are low on spirits ahead of Thursday’s clash as they were hammered by Philadelphia 7-0 at the weekend, and there is every chance head coach Chad Ashton will make a couple of changes to the team that faced the U’s.
Both Odoi-Atsem and Smith are pushing for a start, while Hamid and Perez remain in the recovery room. Columbus, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 3-2 win over Chicago Fire. The Crew looked sharp in front of goal at the weekend; therefore, we predict that they will take advantage of DC United’s shaky defence. Columbus boss Caleb Porter should have a full squad to choose from for the midweek clash.
