Columbus vs LAFC Preview & Picks


Columbus Crew put an end to Philadelphia Union's hopes of winning the Leagues Cup with a 3-1 win in the semi-finals. 

LAFC hammered Colorado Rapids 4-0 in the semi-final as they romped to a convincing win. 

  • Columbus have conceded in their last three Leagues Cup matches 
  • The Crew have beaten LAFC in their last two meetings 
  • The pair have seen both teams score in their last two meetings 

Head-To-Head


The sides have met five times, with LAFC winning three games and the Crew winning the last two matches between the pair. 

Columbus Form 


Columbus Crew have seemed to be on a collision course with the final of the Leagues Cup, with the side securing four very impressive wins to this point. 

Their 3-2 win over Inter Miami remains a very impressive triumph, and their 3-1 win over Philadelphia Union in the semi-finals put their quality on full show once again. 

While the Crew have not been keeping clean sheets often, they have been scoring goals, with an aggregate score of 12-4 across their last four. With this in mind, we are backing the Crew in this one, but they will not likely keep a clean sheet. 

LAFC Form 


LAFC have impressed at the Leagues Cup in 2024, with the side securing five wins across their last six matches. 

Their only defeat of the campaign came against the Vancouver Whitecaps in game two as they were beaten 3-2. Since that match, LAFC have kept three clean sheets and conceded just one goal. Their impressive form means they are worthy of their place in the final. 

However, with the Crew in scintillating form of late, LAFC will have to be near-perfect if they are to win in the showpiece event. 

Verdict

We are backing the Crew to secure the trophy in an entertaining match as LAFC score but fail to beat their opponents.
