We said: Toronto 2-1 Columbus Crew

Injuries to some key players have plagued Toronto early on this season, but their new centre-backs seem to be well-equipped to handle the dangerous Columbus attackers, while Johnson showed last week that he is still an elite keeper, so we expect that he and the TFC home crowd will power them to victory.
