Columbus Crew vs New York City Prediction & Picks - Leagues Cup
by Edgar Jibran | in Leagues Cup Picks
The quarterfinals of the 2024 Leagues Cup have almost been monopolized by MLS teams, and next Saturday, August 17, will determine the 4 qualified teams for the semifinals will be defined, where unfortunately Columbus Crew or New York City will unavoidably be out of the competition as they will have to face each other at 04:00 pm Central Time in the Lower Field in Ohio.
Regarding the performance of both teams, it should be noted that Columbus Crew has just started its participation during the first round of the playoffs due to its status as reigning MLS champion. This has been fundamental for the success they recently had during their matches against Sporting Kansas City (4-0), but most importantly against the most recent champion of this competition, Inter Miami (3-2).
On New York City’s case, this team has managed to overcome more difficulties than expected during the group stage after only being able to earn points against Querétaro, which is presumably one of the most underperforming teams in the Mexican league. However, during the round of 16 “The Pigeons” showed all their class and hierarchy to knock out the powerful Tigres UANL squad (1-2).
