Recent form

DC United

DC United's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six games showing a mix of results. The team has struggled defensively, failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches and conceding an average of 2.17 goals per game. However, their offensive output has been respectable, scoring 1.67 goals per game. The high-scoring nature of their matches is evident, with 83% of games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 83% of fixtures. Their most recent game, a 4-0 loss to Philadelphia Union, stands out as their heaviest defeat in this period, while their 3-1 victory over Toronto FC was their most convincing win. The team's 13th position in the league table reflects their mixed performances, with their negative goal difference (-3) over the last six games mirroring their overall season struggles.

Columbus Crew

The Columbus Crew are currently in excellent form, sitting 3rd in the league with 56 points from 29 games.

Their goal difference of +2 in the last 6 games suggests a balanced but slightly attack-oriented approach.
