América and Columbus Crew get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Leagues Cup Group Stage fixture.
It's quite the trip for Columbus Crew when visiting América as the cities are 3300 kilometers apart.
There have been little to rest for the team playing at home, as they had a Leagues Cup fixture only four days earlier. Thankfully the previous game, versus Saint Louis City, was also a home game here at Lower.com Field. The away team is better rested.
