Goal Statistics

Columbus Crew's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday morning, not least because SJ Earthquakes have conceded in each of their last 7 Major League Soccer matches. A PG of 1.8 for Wilfried Nancy's side suggests that run should continue.

Columbus Crew's defensive record is to be admired, Wilfried Nancy's men having conceded 1 or less in 7 consecutive Major League Soccer matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.0 for SJ Earthquakes makes sense in this context.
