Lower.Com Field is ready for its second match as the Columbus Crew returns to action against New York City FC on Saturday night. This match will have an impact on the Eastern Conference as both teams sit on 17 points in the standings.
The Black & Gold’s roster is truly depleted, as players like Gyasi Zardes, Kevin Molina, Luis Diaz and Liam Fraser are on international duty with their respective countries at the Gold Cup. In addition, the Crew’s injury list continues to grow as Vito Wormgor will miss this contest. On top of this, Harrison Afful will be unavailable as he serves his red card suspension from the most recent Hell is Real Derby.
