Team News

DC United
Columbus
  • Chris Pontius remains sidelined for DC United with a hamstring injury.
  • Sean Franklin is a doubt for the game against the Columbus Crew as he struggles to overcome a foot injury.
  • The Columbus Crew are without any significant injuries for the game against DC United.
  • Matt Lampson is a doubt though and could miss out.

Prediction

  • Fabian Espindola scored DC United's winner against Sporting Kansas City at the weekend, but Ben Olsen's side are looking solid at the back. They've conceded just once in their last three games, with Chris Rolfe settling in nicely to the team.
  • The Columbus Crew clinched a credible point against Real Salt Lake, with Ethan Finlay netting a late equaliser. Even still, it's difficult to asses the Crew at the moment when their form is so patchy. When Federico Higuain plays well, they can cause any team problems.
  • DC United will be confident of claiming three points against an erratic Columbus side.
