Toronto hosts the Columbus Crew in Eastern Conference action
Toronto FC aims to improve its 2-11-5 Eastern Conference record as designated player Djordje Mihailovic makes his debut in a match against the sixth-place Columbus Crew.
- On August 15, 2025, Toronto FC will host Columbus Crew in Toronto at 7:30 p.m. for their first Eastern Conference meeting this season.
- Having reshaped its roster, Toronto FC returns home this Saturday after a month away, with new designated player Djordje Mihailovic joining and Matty Longstaff traded for Jules-Anthony Vilsaint and up to $275,000 in GAM.
- Columbus Crew averages 1.7 goals, 4.7 shots and 5.2 corners per game while allowing 1.9 goals, led by Diego Rossi’s 12 goals this season.
- With distractions reduced, Fraser believes the group is unified, noting Columbus’s mid-pack defense offers an offensive opportunity for Toronto FC.
- With nine remaining games, Toronto FC has scored just 26 goals in 25 matches and holds a 2-7 record in one-goal games, leaving a slim playoff shot.
