AI match recap

Columbus enter with the stronger recent momentum and a clear home-field edge, while DC arrive needing a response after a difficult run on the road. The home side have enough creative and attacking depth to pin DC back, especially if they establish wide overloads early. Baribo remains the decisive counterweight: DC do not need long spells of control if he can turn direct passes into shots and set-piece pressure. The main pre-match issue is conflicting availability reporting, so the official teamsheet matters greatly.
