Tuesday's Matchup

The Columbus Crew will host the New York Red Bulls at Lower.com Field on Tuesday night in a crucial Eastern Conference matchup. Both teams are currently in the playoff picture, but a win for either side would give them a significant boost in their quest for a top spot.

Columbus Crew

The Crew are coming off a 2-1 loss to the New England Revolution on Saturday. Despite the loss, the Crew have been in good form recently, winning four of their last six matches. They are currently in fifth place in the Eastern Conference with 34 points.

New York Red Bulls

The Red Bulls are also coming off a loss, falling 2-0 to FC Cincinnati on Saturday. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for the Red Bulls. They are currently in fourth place in the Eastern Conference with 35 points.

Key Players

Predictions

The Crew and the Red Bulls are two of the most evenly matched teams in the Eastern Conference. Both teams have a lot of attacking talent, so this should be a high-scoring match. The Crew have the home-field advantage, but the Red Bulls are in slightly better form. I predict a 2-2 draw.
