Orlando City can not await any donations from hosts Columbus Crew in this Major League Soccer game. Here's our complete guide!

Insights:
  • Columbus Crew have the most scored goals in the second half (7) in Major League Soccer
  • Orlando City have not yet lost a game away.

Orlando City have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Columbus Crew and Orlando City should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Columbus Crew form and stats

Columbus Crew must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Major League Soccer games here.

Columbus Crew haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 180 minutes ago. Nagbe scored that one.

No payout for Columbus in their previous match, an away game at Philadelphia Union that ended in defeat 0-1. Midfield player Zelarayán got a match rating of 7.63 in that game, the max score being 10. Zelarayán hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 5 of 6 times and had 29 successful passes (of 34 total).

Preceding that match was a defeat to Nashville SC (0-1).

The manager Porter will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Detroit City in only two days.

Columbus Crew are not conceding a lot of goals here in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 2 from 3 matches.

Orlando City form and stats

Things could have gone better for Orlando City in their Major League Soccer away matches, but 5 points from 3 games is all right.

Impressive finishing from Kara secured the home win 1-0 against Chicago Fire in their previous game. Pereyra got a match rating of 8.25 in that game, top player of the team. Pereyra hit six key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 70 successful passes (of 80 total).

A loss against Los Angeles FC was the result prior to that, in a home game.

A new game in only two days for Orlando City, the US Open Cup home match versus Tampa Bay Rowdies. Busy days.

The attacking power of Orlando City when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. The Orlando defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (1 goal in 3 games).

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings featuring these participants: Columbus Crew won four, Orlando City triumphed in five and we saw one draw. five games with over 2,5 goals, five matches with under 2,5 goals.
