We said: Columbus Crew 2-1 Philadelphia Union

Columbus Crew's home ground has been a fortress this year and they will be backing themselves to return to winning ways this weekend. Philadelphia Union appear to have run out of steam at the business end of the season and we fancy the hosts to end their winless run against Curtin's side.
