The New England Revolution have been red hot since Jermaine Jones showed up, but can the Columbus Crew pull an upset?

While the Crew haven’t been as hot as the Revs, they’ve solidly been one of the better teams in the East during the second half of the season and did well to avoid the knockout round game. Federico Higuain has had another great season for Columbus, while Wil Trapp and Michael Parkhurst have made their defense formidable.
The Crew’s only missing players for this game are Fifi Baiden, Matt Wiet and Daniel Paladin, none of whom are first choice. New England are without veteran midfielder Shalrie Joseph, but shouldn’t miss him much.
Because of the general lack of availability of Univision Deportes, the fine folks at MLS are streaming this game on their website for free.
