The Crew have qualified for the tournament proper for the first time since 2006. Last year, they lost 3-2 in extra-time to the Chicago Fire in the third
MLS qualifying round after defeating Real Salt Lake in the second qualifying round.In their last appearance, the Crew defeated PDL Michigan
Bucks 4-1 in a third-round tie, before losing 2-1 in extra time to D.C. United.The first honor in Crew history came in the U.S. Open Cup, a 1-0
victory in the 2002 final at Crew Stadium against the Los Angeles Galaxy. After knocking off an A-League team in the Richmond Kickers in the third
round, they had to overcome three consecutive MLS opponents to lift the Dewar Trophy.They've lost to lower-division opposition just once as well.

Rochester sits in fifth place in the USL First Division with 20 points from 13 matches on the season. They've won their last three games on the trot, a 2-1 win at Cleveland, a 2-0 win against Austin and a 2-1 defeat of Minnesota. Johnny Menyongar is once again pacing the Rhinos with four goals. The Rhinos knocked off the USL2 Pittsburgh Riverhounds 4-2 in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in the first round then defeated the USL1
Cleveland City Stars 2-1 in extra time in the second round.For me Columbus Crew will win here after good game.
