Charlotte travel to face Columbus Crew in MLS looking for a win that could see them move into joint-second place in the Eastern Conference standings. Charlotte sit in 5th spot in the Eastern Conference table, and eighth overall as they chase a spot in the CONCACAF Champions Cup. Columbus Crew are 27th overall, and are positioned in 13th spot in the Eastern Conference with just eight wins from their 28 games so far. The Crew have been somewhat draw specialists this year with 15 draws, the joint-second highest in their Conference.
The Crown have only won five games on the road this year, although they've won two and drawn one of their last three away games. Columbus have won their last two at home in all comps, including a 2-1 victory over Inter Miami last time out.
For our prediction, we're looking at the away win. We think Charlotte will continue their recent impressive away record and take all three points.
