Posted April 24, 2009 11:00 pm
Chicago Fire at Columbus Crew
When: 6 p.m. Saturday at Crew Stadium.
TV: Fox Soccer Channel.
Scouting the Fire: How will the Fire bounce back from last week's "loss?" The players and coaches see the 2-2 draw with Kansas City as a motivating factor. Brian McBride is tied for the lead league with 4 goals.
Scouting the Columbus Crew: The defending MLS Cup champion is winless in five games this season and sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference table that the Fire leads. Guillermo Barros Schelotto has 3 of the Crew's 5 goals. Expect a tight, physical game.
Next game: vs. Club America, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.
