Major League Soccer returns to Lower.com Field on Saturday evening, when the Columbus Crew and CF Montreal go head-to-head. Despite going a goal down early on the road last weekend, the Crew walked away from Washington D.C. with all three points, thanks largely to a double from the reliable Diego Rossi, who scored in each half, notching his fourth and fifth goals of the campaign. That result signalled five games (in all competitions) without defeat for Wilfried Nancy's men, who are determined to top the Eastern Conference this time around. This home game against a struggling side surely represents an opportunity for them to pick up another important three points.
Can the visitors get something from this game? Well, if they are to get a positive result in Ohio, they'll need to do something that they've not really done this season, which is score goals. Thanks to a lack of offensive power, the men from Canada are without a win in six games, four of which they've failed to score in. Let's see what they can muster here.
