The race for the postseason is now very much on in the Eastern Conference, and the Columbus Crew are absolutely in the thick of that race. Currently, Saturday's hosts sit on the cusp and if the postseason was to begin right now, they'd be in the play-out game, but there's still time for them to secure an automatic play-off spot here. Winning this very winnable game would certainly help the Crew move toward achieving that goal.
At early odds of +135, available at DraftKings at the time of writing, 'Columbus Crew to Win & Both Teams to Score' appeals as the best betting prospect. We know that this is nothing short of a huge opportunity for the hosts. The early betting market confirms this, but can they keep a clean sheet? Recent history would suggest not, perhaps even a little more than the available odds do.

Our Columbus Crew vs DC United Prediction
It would be wrong to say that the visitors haven't improved as the season has gone on, but most of their improvements have been of an offensive nature. At the back, they're still all over the place, which is why they've lost five of their last six away games in all competitions, losing each of their last four away games in the league. They've scored in each of their last three road defeats, though.
The hosts know how to get the job done at home, but they haven't been keeping many clean sheets, with leads us to conclude that 'Columbus Crew to Win & Both Teams to Score' is the way to go.
Our Columbus Crew vs DC United Pick: Columbus Crew to Win & Both Teams to Score.
