Philadelphia Union vs Columbus Crew Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer

 by Carlos Zabala | in Major League Soccer Picks

Philadelphia Union and Columbus Crew face off in Wednesday's MLS action at Subaru Park. The Columbus Crew, on a hot streak, are 3rd in the MLS Eastern Conference with 3 games less than Inter Miami and Cincinnati, which had a great season.

For Columbus, Colombian Hernandez has been the team's key piece, scoring 13 goals and providing 7 assists this season, although it is his Uruguayan teammate Rossi who has been stealing the spotlight lately, since he was called up to the MLS All-Star Team, his performance has only improved.

Rossi was player of the match against Kansas City, against Inter Miami and in the recent match against Philadelphia Union, he scored 2 goals against all of them and earned a performance grade of over 8.7 in all of those matches.

Columbus Crew was crowned champion of the second edition of the Leagues Cup by beating Los Angeles FC in the final 3-1 with two goals from Hernandez. The team had a great performance and against MLS teams it didn't even need a penalty shootout to beat any of them in the knockout stages.

Philadelphia Union also had a great performance but fell in the semi-finals against Columbus, although Gazdag had a good performance in the defeat.
