Competition: MLS

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 7/10 @ 888sport

In a contest that could see a host of chances of the pitch in midweek, Columbus Crew will host New York Red Bulls in the early hours of Wednesday.

Starting with the hosts, only continuing on what has been a woeful run of form, Columbus Crew have found themselves freefalling down the Eastern Conference standings. In their 24 MLS matchups so far this season, they have recorded seven wins, six draws and 11 defeats, scoring 27 and conceding 33 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 27, they open the midweek fixtures sat 10th in the table and now four points adrift of breaking into the Final Series places. As for their recent run of results, suffering yet another defeat away at Inter Miami last weekend, Columbus Crew have lost eight of their last nine MLS matchups, a run that stems all the way back to July 24th. Likewise, it should also be noted that Wednesday’s hosts have seen each of their last four straight home fixtures finish with both teams finding the net by the final whistle.

As for the visitors, also enduring what has been their own extended rut, New York Red Bulls are another side who find themselves as an outside chance in the Final Series hunt. In their 21 MLS matchups so far this season, they have recorded six wins, five draws and 10 defeats, scoring 24 and conceding 26 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 23, they open the midweek fixtures sat down in 11th in the Eastern Conference and eight points adrift of breaking into the top-seven. As for their recent run of results, last seen playing out a 1-1 draw against DC United on home soil, New York have managed to win just one of their last 10 straight MLS matchups. It should be noted, with Wednesday’s guests seeing four of their last five away fixtures finish with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome in midweek.
