The Columbus Crew is back on the road this weekend after returning from the international break last Saturday with a 1-1 home draw against MLS expansion side Charlotte FC. The Black & Gold head to the Western Conference for the first time this year to take on Real Salt Lake.
A depleted Columbus team is looking to build off of the decent performance against Charlotte last week, but could be without as many as eight players once again. Salt Lake is hoping to get the team’s second win in a row out of the international break, previously defeating the San Jose Earthquakes 2-0, and continue to build on the best home record in Major League Soccer.
