The Columbus Crew will begin defence of their MLS Cup when they host the New York Red Bulls in game one of that best-of-three series on Tuesday at Lower.com Field.
In the regular season, the Crew finished second in the Eastern Conference, winning their previous encounter against the Red Bulls 3-2 last week, dropping the latter down to seventh.
We say: Columbus Crew 3-0 New York Red Bulls
All year, the Crew rarely showed any effects of fatigue despite a demanding schedule, and we trust their attacking depth will propel them to another victory at Lower.com Field.
