When the Columbus Crew and Los Angeles Galaxy meet on Saturday night at the Home Depot Center, the stakes will be high, with the winner taking the outright lead in the race for Major League Soccer's Supporters' Shield.

Seeking another contender from the East? Look no further than the New York Red Bulls, who can take matters into their own hands with contests against the Galaxy, RSL and FCD among their final seven games.
