We said: Charlotte FC 1-1 Columbus Crew

The Crown might be playing Columbus at a good time, as the Crew could be without some vital pieces, which should benefit Charlotte this weekend. While Columbus seem to be buying into the Nancy style of play, they have not been quite as potent on the road, scoring just once in three of four outings, while seven of their nine goals conceded have come away from home.
