Columbus Crew team news and form: Goalie troubles for Nancy
One of the key reasons behind our primary Toluca vs Columbus Crew prediction is the injury of goalkeeper-in-chief Patrick Schulte. The 24-year-old shot-stopper suffered an abdominal muscle injury and will probably skip this match, leaving the Crew exposed.

Player to watch: Daniel Gazdag
Once a Philadelphia Union icon, now, Gazdag is strutting his stuff at Lower.com Field. He managed to score his debut goal for the Crew, helping his team secure a vital win against DC United.
Is Gazdag’s time now?
We should also note that the Hungarian attacking midfielder provided an assist to a teammate. However, he should point out that with four MLS yellow cards, he is a card away from suspension.
Nevertheless, we still believe the playmaker will be at his lethal best this week to prove our key Toluca vs Columbus Crew predictions right.
