We said: Orlando City 2-1 Columbus Crew

 Strong home form makes Orlando the favourites for this one, as they are unbeaten in nine at the Exploria Stadium. Five wins in a row here against Columbus is another positive omen, but they have all been by one-goal margins, so another close encounter could be in store between two in-form sides.
