Team News

Columbus
Chicago
  • With Mohamed Farsi making an appearance last match, there are no injuries to report.
  • Carlos Teran is starting to train after undergoing knee surgery.
  • Bryan Dowd and Javier Casas Jr. are both out with a lower left leg injury.
  • Victor Bezerra is out with a right upper leg injury.
  • Andrew Gutman is out with a hamstring strain.

Prediction

  • Columbus blew a one-goal lead at Minnesota last weekend in the final minute of play. The reigning MLS Cup champions return home after picking up a victory in Concacaf Champions Cup action in Houston on Wednesday.
  • The expectations for Chicago haven't been this high in a while since signing Hugo Cuypers, Kellyn Acosta, and others in the offseason. It's been a murderer's row to kick off the season as Chicago has played Philadephia, FC Cincinnati, and now Columbus. Chicago has one point out of their first two matches and a draw would be a win traveling to Lower.com Field.
