On the road again. The Columbus Crew is away from Lower.com Field for the seventh time this season. For the first time this year, the Crew heads out West, traveling to Sandy, Utah to take on Real Salt Lake, the second-best team in the Western Conference.
Real has amassed 28 points so far this year, sitting just two points behind LAFC, thanks largely to a 6-0-1 record at Rio Tinto Stadium. It will be a tall task to get a full three points on the road for a Black & Gold team that has another lengthy injury report heading into this match.
