Match begins: 23:30 (UTC)
Venue: MAPFRE Stadium (24650 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 10th and the visitors in 9th place.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Major League Soccer game only three days ago. That game, against DC United, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Orlando City. That game was a home fixture for Orlando City, against DC United. But now it's all about beating Columbus Crew!

It's quite the trip for Orlando City when visiting Columbus Crew as the cities are 1500 kilometers apart.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Columbus Crew as they are travelling to their away game against Real Salt Lake in the Major League Soccer. That match is four days after this one.
