Columbus Crew vs Toronto Lineups & Team News

Columbus Crew

The only team to score more goals than coach Wilfried Nancy’s side this season is St. Louis City. And that’s because Bradley Carnell’s team scored six in the previous MLS fixture. Had it not been for those six goals, Columbus Crew would’ve had the best attacking statistics in the league, which speaks volumes about our Columbus Crew vs Toronto predictions.

Predicted lineup – Schulte (GK), Moreira, Zawadzki, Amundsen, Gressel, Nagbe, Morris, Yeboah, Matan, Ramirez & Hernandez

Toronto

After coach Bob Bradley got sacked, fans were hopeful that points would start pouring in. However, nothing of the sort is happening as the Canucks lost nine games on the spin. First, the team got beaten badly in MLS. Then, the team’s lack of attacking punch proved decisive as Toronto got thrown out of the Leagues Cup tournament.

Predicted lineup – Romero (GK), Servania, O’Neill, Mabika, Sapong, Ibarra, Bradley, Osorio, Bernardeschi, Owusu & Insigne

Player to Watch: Federico Bernardeschi

The good news for coach Terry Dunfield is that he’ll be able to count on his atomic duo. Lorenzo Insigne seems fit but he’ll either be on the bench or not be at his best on Sunday. That’s why we trust Federico Berbardeschi to bring his A-game at Lower.com Field. Federico was close to singlehandedly bringing a point for coach Dunfield in the match against Montreal when he scored a second-half brace. Alas, it wasn’t meant to be, as it was Losada’s boys who took home valuable three points.
