After a 14-day break between regular-season Major League Soccer matches, Columbus Crew SC will travel south to face one of the league’s newest expansion clubs, Atlanta United FC on Saturday June 17 for a 7 p.m. ET kickoff. The matchup between the two clubs will be the first of two regular-season meetings this season.
The Black & Gold first matched up against Atlanta in the preseason Carolina Challenge Cup in February, with Crew SC walking away victorious 2-1. Despite an early 6th minute goal by Josef Martinez, the Black & Gold bounced back thanks to a brace by Federico Higuain.
Crew SC will come into Saturday’s match with an overall 7-8-1 record, putting them in the top half of the Eastern Conference, compared to Atlanta with their overall 5-6-3 record putting them in eighth in the Eastern Conference. Crew SC will be looking to extend United’s two-game losing streak on Saturday.
Columbus will next travel for a June 17 match in Atlanta against MLS-expansion side Atlanta United with a 7 p.m. ET kickoff.
Crew SC next plays the Montreal Impact at MAPFRE Stadium on Saturday, June 24 with a 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff.
