Salt Lake welcomes Columbus Crew to the Rio Tinto Stadium for this match in the MLS. The home team are 2nd in the Western Conference with 28 points while the visitors are in 11th position in the Eastern Conference with 17 points. Salt Lake are just two points behind the leaders Los Angeles FC but have played an extra match. They have been in excellent recent form winning four of their last five matches. Salt Lake will be looking to replicate the result from when these two teams last met as they came away with 1-0 victory. They have been in excellent form at home with just one loss in their last eight matches with six wins and a draw. Salt Lake have been miserly in defence especially at home and have only conceded one goal in their last four home matches.

Columbus Crew come into this match on the back of a 1-1 draw with Charlotte which extended their unbeaten run to two matches. They will be looking to gain three points in this match as they find themselves just three points away from the relegation zone. A loss in this match could see them fall into the dreaded drop zone if other results go against them. Columbus Crew have only won two of their last 12 matches across all competitions with four losses and six draws. Their away record is not much better and shows just one win in their last eight matches.
