The Eastern Conference leading Blues take on the defending conference champs Crew SC on YES
The Eastern Conference leaders visit Columbus today. New York City are in first place by a single point, courtesy of a drab draw against San Jose last Friday night. A victory against Crew SC, with its three resulting points, would be precious against an onrushing Toronto FC, who are in second place and playing outstanding soccer at the moment.
Columbus is mired in a nine-game winless streak. For a club that prides itself in tradition and winning - Columbus was the first MLS team ever - this is their longest winless streak in a decade.
