With just a single win separating them in the top four of the Eastern Conference, Columbus Crew and Toronto FC’s matchup on Saturday will have some extra edge.

After a 2-0 win at MAPFRE Stadium back in March, the Crew will look to make it two-for-two at home this season against their Trillium Cup rivals. It would also be their third consecutive win and fourth victory in five games.

In response to the Crew’s league-leading scorer Kei Kamara (14), TFC presents Sebastian Giovinco, who last weekend scored his 12th of the season in a 2-1 win against the Philadelphia Union.

International Champions Cup action is also in the mix with a few exciting match-ups, even for preseason. Manchester United faces Barcelona at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, while Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain relive their Champions League quarterfinal clash in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The U.S. Men’s National Team tries to end the Gold Cup on a high note in the third place game against Panama. Finally, the Liga MX Apertura gets underway with Cruz Azul starting things off against Morelia.
