Team News

Columbus
Toronto
  • Josh Williams is a doubt for the game against Toronto FC as he strives to overcome a groin strain.
  • Hector Jimenez is also expected to miss out for the Columbus Crew, with Bernardo Anor struggling with injury, too.
  • Gilberto has returned to full fitness for Toronto FC against the Columbus Crew, but Bright Dike and Steven Caldwell will miss.

Prediction

  • The Columbus Crew seem to have found their groove, winning two of their last three games, drawing the other one. Federico Higuain has sparked Gregg Berhalter's side into life, as demonstrated by the 2-1 win over the New England Revolution.
  • Toronto FC needed to snap their losing streak, and that's what they did against the Montreal Impact last week. Ryan Nelsen's side recorded a 2-0 win at Stade Saputo and brought a four game winless streak to an end and they will look to build on that.
  • TFC have the quality to beat most sides in MLS, but will they turn up? They often go missing in action.
