After a memorable weather delay and forgetful match last Saturday against LAFC, the Columbus Crew is set to take to the road to face Eastern Conference foes Atlanta United. This Saturday’s contest is an important match for both sides, as each looks to return to winning ways. The Crew has just one win in the team’s last nine matches, while Atlanta has just one victory in the Five Stripes’ last seven matches.
The two sides seem fairly even on paper, sitting three points apart in the standings, and will have this game earmarked as a chance to jumpstart their 2022 campaigns.
