Key player Minnesota United

Key player Columbus Crew
Cucho Hernandez had an outstanding performance in the previous game where he collaborated with a brace for the comeback and has been the team's goal scorer for some months, so it will be key to supply him with balls.

Minnesota United: keeping order
Minnesota United managed to advance as second in the group, all this after beating Puebla, but losing to Chicago Fire in a rain of goals 3-2, where they were a little disconnected in the defensive sector and this same situation should not happen, considering that there will be an opponent of a much higher hierarchy.
Columbus Crew: labeled as favorites
Columbus Crew advanced as sector leader by beating Saint Louis City, but above all by beating and scoring against América, so with those two victories they not only advanced as first, but they have the label of favorites and are called to be able to transcend on the side of MLS teams and, therefore, in this game, they will have the home field.
The Kick-off
The Columbus Crew vs Minnesota United match will be played at the Lower.com Field, in Columbus, United States. The kick-off is scheduled at 8:00 pm ET.
