We say: FC Cincinnati 0-2 Columbus Crew

This match could go either way, as Nancy and Noonan are sure to put together an intelligent game plan, while both sides also have plenty of outstanding individual talent capable of producing a moment of magic. The extended Miazga suspension recently has changed our thoughts as the Crew may have an easier time creating chances and scoring, while it's unclear how much Nwobodo can do following his injury or if he will even feature.
