We said: CF Montreal 2-0 Columbus Crew

 You would think that Zelerayan is far too valuable to the Crew's success to sit out of a match with so much at stake at this stage of the season. However, if he plays, and is not 100% as reports suggest, chances could be hard to come by for a Columbus side who filter most of their attacks through the 30-year-old Armenian international.
