However, Orlando City should bring some momentum into this round of matches following an excellent win over New England Revolution last time out. That victory means that they sit sixth in the Eastern Conference standings, ensuring that their playoff dreams are in their own hands.

It could also be worth noting that Orlando have been in strong form on the road this season. Throughout 2025, they have suffered defeats in just 17% of their away matches. Orlando have also scored an impressive 1.58 goals per game, and they have allowed just 1.08 efforts per fixture.


Head-to-Head Record

The Columbus Crew have recorded victories in each of the last two MLS meetings between the sides. Their latest success was recorded in September 2024, as they recorded a dramatic 4-3 success at home.


Columbus Crew vs. Orlando City Picks

Orlando’s excellent record on the road this season does make some appeal this weekend. However, it remains challenging to overlook the in-form hosts from recording an important victory in their push for a playoff finish.
