When it comes to Columbus Crew, these guys haven’t been great on the road. In the regular season, their away record was 4-5-8, with one of those losses happening in Orlando in September – the home team beat them 4-3.
The win in question was Orlando City’s sixth straight win over Columbus Crew in Florida. The last time Orlando City didn’t win against Columbus in the Sunshine State was in October 2017.
Orlando City vs. Columbus Crew Prediction
Orlando City’s main advantage in the 2023 MLS is that these guys work great as a collective. There are 11 players on this team’s roster who have scored at least a goal this season. Further, Facundo Torres and Duncan McGuire have 10+ goals each.
Meanwhile, Columbus is mostly relying on Colombian striker Cucho to score goals. He’s their scoring leader with 19 goals this season. If Orlando’s defense manages to stop this guy, they should be fine.
