The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Saturday's Major League Soccer clash between Columbus Crew and Vancouver Whitecaps, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Columbus Crew 1-1 Vancouver Whitecaps

This season, we expect to see Columbus back in form with their key components intact and a robust midfield presence that can make them a dangerous team to face. The Caps may not have Crepeau to bail them out, but their speed and transition game should give the Crew a few headaches, while their creativity will likely enable this strong attacking squad more than a few openings in the final third.
