After being only able to dress 17 players last weekend, Crew SC will have a near full compliment to choose from. Tony Tchani, Harrison Afful, and Justin Meram returned to town after the international date. Only Wil Trapp will be out.
The reinforcement come at the right time. Columbus is currently 8 points out of a playoff spot with 8 games to play. Cutting into those long odds will require a win tonight.
The opponen is perfect for Crew SC. The Vancouver Whitecaps have struggled mightily recently and especially on the road. They haven’t scored in three straight games and six straight games away from home.
