Colin's Keys to a first meeting with Nashville

Colin's Keys

Tune in to AM730 radio on matchdays for a live broadcast of the match, with a pre-match show and post-match show.

Saturday's pre-match show kicks off at 4 p.m. PT at whitecapsfc.com/am730.

Here are Colin’s keys as the 'Caps get back to MLS action with a first ever meeting against Nashville SC.

Compete in the air

Nashville are a big threat on crosses, and set pieces.

They have some big bodies with the likes of centre back Walker Zimmerman and striker CJ Sapong.

The 'Caps will need to compete in the air.

Big targets

On the other side, the 'Caps have some big targets of their own.

We've seen some great goals lately come from crosses.

The Nashville back line will not enjoy playing against Lucas Cavallini and Brian White.

Feel good factor 

Tuesday was a fantastic night for the club, winning the Voyageurs Cup in front of over 24,000 boisterous fans at BC Place.

The feel good factor has given us all a lift.

We need to keep momentum moving forward now.
