Week 30 Primetime Preview

DC United v New England
It’s a huge game tonight for DC, who scrapped by for a point last week against Houston. This week’s task is a bit easier, playing at home and against a New England team who will be missing one of their most important players in Steve Ralston. That combined with their status as a playoff team and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Steve Nicol rest some of his regulars.

On the other hand, the question mark for DC is who will play – can Fred and/or Emilio start or put in effective minutes? Or are they hopeless resigned to not make the playoffs? Even with a win tonight it’s no guarantee, as an away trip to Columbus looms. Hard to foresee what DC team will show up; can they put out a decent side? Not sure, but they’ll certainly be pressing from the get-go. Stay tuned, I might also do a liveblog of tonight’s game… if I feel like it.
