Nashville SC vs Columbus Crew Preview and Team News
Nashville SC Team News
Nashville’s 15-game unbeaten run came to an end in the last round, as they were defeated 1-2 by Inter Miami at home. Even the hosts failed to contain Lionel Messi’s magic and, despite their best efforts, couldn’t find the equalizer.
After the loss, Nashville still sit third in the Eastern Conference with 41 points. They’ve shown excellent consistency so far and remain one of the top contenders to challenge for first place.
Luckily for Nashville, there are no new injury concerns ahead of the clash. Only Tyler Boyd and Maximus Ekk are sidelined with knee issues, with their return dates unknown.
Nashville SC predicted lineup vs Columbus Crew (4-3-3): Willis; Lovitz, Palacios, Maher, Najar; Yazbek, Tagseth, Mukhtar; Shaffelburg, Surridge, Qasem.
Columbus Crew Team News
The Columbus Crew, in contrast, extended their unbeaten streak to five matches by beating FC Cincinnati 2-4 on the road. Despite conceding two early goals in the first and fifth minutes, Wilfried Nancy’s men quickly bounced back, scoring four consecutive goals.
The victory saw Columbus solidify fourth place. They’re tied with Nashville (41 points), and only the goal difference separates them now. The visitors are enjoying a great period following a six-game winless run.
Danish Malte Amundsen and Rudy Camacho will sit out the upcoming clash due to injury, while Guatemalan goalkeeper Nicholas Hagen remains doubtful, as he hasn’t featured since the Gold Cup.
Columbus Crew predicted lineup vs Nashville SC (4-4-2): Schulte; Arfsten, Cheberko, Zawadzki, Moreira; Aliyu, Nagbe, Chambost, Gazdag; Russell-Rowe, Rossi.

Nashville SC vs Columbus Crew Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Nashville to Win
- Odds: +104 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Nashville SC 3-1 Columbus Crew
Nashville suffered a narrow loss against Inter Miami, but recently, Javier Mascherano’s men have been in superior form. We expect a completely different team to come onto the pitch for the upcoming clash, as they have the third-best home record in the MLS.
If we take a look at the clubs’ head-to-head record, it’s mostly balanced, with Nashville having two wins, three losses, and five draws. However, this season, the Columbus Crew haven’t been strong on the road, collecting just 16 points in 10 rounds.
The hosts are likely to hold the initiative, and while it promises to be a close match, the factor of home-field advantage is bound to play its role.
Nashville SC vs Columbus Crew Betting Tip
- Pick: Both Teams to Score
- Odds: -179 (Tonybet)
The fixture features one of the best offensive teams in the world. However, they’re not as convincing in the defence, which allows their opponents to produce a lot of shots on target.
Three of the last six meetings between these clubs have seen both sides score. Given the significance of this clash, neither squad are likely to sit back and wait for a mistake.
Nashville’s English forward Sam Surridge, who is tied with Lionel Messi on 16 goals, will be looking to add to his tally. Meanwhile, the Columbus Crew’s Diego Rossi has now found the back of the net in two games in a row.
