The New York Red Bulls arrive at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field carrying a 7-6-11 record, while Columbus Crew enters at 6-5-13 looking to gain ground in a crowded stretch of the table. New York sits 12th in the Eastern Conference and Columbus sits 13th, a one-spot gap that shows how tightly bunched this part of the standings has become.

Players to Watch: New York Red Bulls vs. Columbus Crew
New York Red Bulls
Julian Hall — F. Nobody on the Red Bulls has found the net more often than Julian Hall this season, and his 9 goals across 24 appearances make him the focal point of everything New York tries to build in the final third. Columbus will need its back line locked in against him from the opening whistle.
Emil Forsberg — M. A dual threat rather than a pure passer, Emil Forsberg has produced 3 goals and 7 assists in 23 appearances for New York this season. His range from midfield gives the Red Bulls a second way to break down a stubborn Columbus defense.
Jorge Ruvalcaba — F. Playing alongside Hall up top, Jorge Ruvalcaba has chipped in 7 goals of his own across 23 appearances. His presence means Columbus can’t focus its defensive attention on a single Red Bulls forward.
Columbus Crew
Dylan Chambost — M. The creative hub of the Columbus midfield, Dylan Chambost has set up 4 assists across 21 appearances this season. He is the player most likely to unlock a set piece or a late through ball behind the Red Bulls’ back line.
Taha Habroune — M. Rounding out Columbus’s attacking options, Taha Habroune has scored 2 goals in 23 appearances this season. His willingness to get forward from midfield adds an extra scoring outlet alongside Abou Ali.
