Colombus Crew Scouting Report:

Colombus is currently just two points ahead of the Union, so a Union win tonight would put them in second place. The Crew will have a home-field advantage tonight, as they have yet to allow one goal at home. Goalkeeper Eloy Room is coming back from injury and will have to face a Philadelphia Union attack that put up 4 goals last week against the Revolution.

Union Player to Watch:

Kacper Prybyzlko: The striker has scored three goals in four games, and I expect the momentum to carry into the game tonight.

Prediction: Tie, 1-1

I think that this game is very evenly matched and will end in a 1-1 draw. The Union come out with one point and stay in third place.
