We said: Columbus Crew 1-1 DC United

 There is only goal difference to separate these two teams in the league, and it is likely that there will not be much between them when it comes to Sunday's match. Each club is enjoying mixed form right now, and therefore could benefit from a victory, but because of that it could lead to a cagey encounter that might produce a draw. Read more.
