2007 MLS Mid-Week 12 Prediction

Kansas City Wizards (6-2-2) vs. Columbus Crew (1-4-6)
7:30pm ET/4:30pm PT
TV: Direct Kick
Internet: MLStv
Can Kansas City continue to develop their Eddie Johnson free offense? Will the Crew build on their great second half from Saturday night? The Wizards come to town looking for a win to retake the top spot in the East. Their last three matches have been against New England and New York (twice) and they managed to get 7 points from them, so they are looking alright. Coach Curt Onalfo toyed with a 3-4-3 setup in the second half against New York and it paid off, but the Crew had a breakout second half of their own over the weekend. The Wizards should have a number of chances in Columbus but if they relax, the Crew will make something of it. By the way, if KC get three points, Onalfo will coach the MLS All-Star team against Celtic FC (the coach of the team with the best points per game after this Sunday will get the honor).
Predictions: Me KC 2-1 CC, Wife KC 1-1 CC
