👉 Our prediction is: Columbus Crew win or draw

We feel strongly about Columbus Crew's chances of leaving with a point, or maybe even more. That is why our betting tip is Columbus Crew to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

Columbus Crew has shown considerable courage and determination in their recent away performances, while New York RB's form has not been the most convincing. So while an away win might be too much to ask for, Columbus Crew is more than capable of collecting a point in this match.

👉 Our prediction is: Columbus Crew to win the 1st half

Columbus Crew is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts New York RB a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Columbus Crew to win the first half.
