Columbus Crew Going All-In on Sunday

In the first Crew vs. Red Bulls game, the boys from New York won 1:0. It was a somewhat surprising result given that the first leg of the MLS Playoff doubleheader was played in Ohio.

What was really shocking is that the Crew failed to score a single goal on Tuesday evening despite having the ball in their possession 78% of the time and making 15 goal attempts.

They have no other option but to give their best to score this time around. Luckily for them, that shouldn’t be too difficult as they’ve got Cucho Hernandez on the roster.

With 19 goals to his name in the regular season of the 2024 MLS, he’s one of the best strikers in America. And we think he’s going to prove it on November 3.

New York Red Bulls vs. Columbus Crew Prediction

Columbus Crew’s strongest weapon is their offense. It failed them in the previous game, but on Sunday, we think it’s going to prove lethal to the Red Bulls. We think Cucho Hernandez and his colleagues will get on target several times, helping the Crew win by two or more goals.
