The Columbus Crew heads on the road for the first time in Major League Soccer play in the 2021 season on Saturday, taking on CF Montreal. Last season, the Crew failed to win a true road game, getting victories exclusively at historic Crew Stadium and at the MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando, Florida.
Fortunately for the Black & Gold, this game will be played in Florida, as Montreal is based in Fort Lauderdale due to travel restrictions between the United States and Canada because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Having drawn the opening game of the season two weeks ago against the Philadelphia Union, Columbus also hopes to get the team’s first win in MLS play for the 2021 season.
