MLS Betting Preview: New England Revolution vs Columbus Crew
New England Revolution take on Columbus Crew at Gillette Stadium, with kick-off set for 19:30 on Saturday 18 April.
We’ll back New England +0.25 on the Asian Handicap and split our stake between 0 and +0.5 when they clash with Columbus. A victory delivers a nice payout at -105 although a draw would still mean a return.
