The jockeying for playoff positioning in the MLS Eastern Conference will be in full swing today as teams try and move into better playoff spots, and the Columbus Crew tries to simply make the playoffs.
D.C. United takes on the Columbus Crew in crucial East match-up, with D.C. able to clinch a playoff berth and potentially even a top three spot with a win. The Crew need a victory just to stay alive in the playoff race, though a Houston loss to the Philadelphia Union could help Columbus’ cause.
