Columbus Crew could not find their consistency yet in the MLS as they are located away from the seat taking them to the Championship qualification, standing on the 10th position in the Eastern Conference. They only won one game in their last 5 games which includes 2 draws and 2 losses the latest game against New York City Football Club in their last fixture. The American manager, Caleb Porter, and his men will try their best to get back on the ladder and satisfy their fans.
Last season, LAFC could not qualify for the play-offs but this season their mission is different as they are eager and hungry to compete on higher levels. To win a championship a team should be consistent and compatible. LAFC lost their position as the leaders of the Western Conference after 2 consecutive defeats against Colorado and Austin FC. Steven Cherundolo should get his team back on track by motivating and making the necessary adjustments to play for the title.
After the last game against their rivals, Austin FC, Carlos Vela said : “ After 2 losses, it is time to show the character and personality of this team”.
