Know Your Opponent: Columbus Crew Struggles In Last Place

Crew Stuggles

Recent Matches


The Columbus Crew’s last match was 3-1 loss to the Vancouver Whitecaps. The Crew have won just two of their last five matches, and were handed hefty losses in Vancouver, LA, and Philadelphia. 


Who’s Hot


There hasn’t been much to cheer about in the Columbus Crew this season. Adam Jahn and Ethan Finlay have both had a few goals in their last five matches, but it hasn’t been enough to give them a win.


Who’s Not


Again, there hasn’t been much strength in this Columbus Crew team. Their defense gave up three goals to a team that had scored just one in their last seven matches. Their offense has been unable to produce-- while they score in most games, it hasn’t been enough to lift to victory. 


Power Rankings


Columbus Crew is ranked last in the MLS Power Rankings after being dealt a hefty loss from the Vancouver Whitecaps. Their ranked six slots behind Orlando City, despite Orlando’s 4-2 loss to the LA Galaxy this past weekend. 


Head-To-Head


Orlando City is 1-1-2 when facing the Columbus Crew in MLS matches. This is a very different Columbus Crew than the title contenders from last year, and surely Orlando City will be looking for three points when they take the pitch at home on Saturday night.
