Toronto FC vs Columbus Crew Prediction and Betting Tips 21 March 2026

Toronto FC take one Columbus Crew in an eagerly-awaited MLS clash, with both sides struggling for consistency. As both teams are eager to grab something from Sunday's game, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Reds are missing Corbeanu, Gomis, and Wingo, and have drawn 5 of their last 6 matches, including a 1-1 draw with New York Red Bulls. At home, they perform slightly better, averaging 1.67 points per game and scoring 2 goals per match, though their defense remains shaky, conceding 1.33 goals per home game.

Columbus Crew, missing Mohamed Farsi, have endured a poor away run with 0 wins in the last 6 away games, conceding 1.83 goals per match. Their home form is stronger, but overall they average only 1 point per game in the last 10 matches. Head-to-head, Columbus slightly lead with 17 wins from 36 clashes, while Toronto have 11 victories.

As 89% of past encounters reached this mark, we believe that there is big value in betting on Over 1.5 goals, alongside Both Teams to Score and Draw.

This MLS match will be played on Saturday 21 March 2026 at 17:00.
