One of Wednesday's Major League Soccer fixtures puts together DC United and the Columbus Crew. For the hosts, this game represents a decent opportunity to secure what would be a first win in six league fixtures. The visitors had also been on their own winless run, but that came to an end at the weekend, with the Crew getting the better of the Rapids in front of a home crowd, winning 3-0, picking up three points for the first time in six MLS games.
Based on the odds available at the time of writing (-164), 'Both Teams to Score' goes down as a more than viable option for those looking to get involved in the betting ahead of this fixture. Neither side comes into this game having showcased much defensive solidity in recent weeks, so there's a good chance that both the hosts and the visitors will have this marked down as a game to attack.

Our DC United vs Columbus Crew Prediction
This is very much a game between two teams that struggle to keep things tight at the back. At home this season, the hosts have kept only two clean sheets out of 11 games in the league, while the visitors are without a clean sheet in the 11 away games that they've played. If we consider that both teams have scored in each of the last five away Major League Soccer games played by the Columbus Crew, then we can conclude that both teams have a slightly greater chance of netting here than early odds of -164 may indicate.
Our DC United vs Columbus Crew Pick: Both Teams to Score.
