Prediction: 2-0
FC Dallas
Colorado Rapids and Dallas go head to head at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in what is expected to be an entertaining MLS encounter. Colorado have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team losing to Sporting Kansas City, beating Minnesota United, while sharing the spoils with both Seattle and San Jose. The Rapids aim to return to winning ways as soon as possible, and the bookies see them as favourites to win the midweek clash.
Denmark international Younes Namil remains on the sidelines with injury, while all Kellyn Acosta, Jonathan Lewis, and Sam Vines represent USA at the 2021 Gold Cup finals. The Toros, on the other hand, are on a six-game losing run on the road, which is the main reason why home win should be considered. All Hedges, Redzic, and Zobeck are injured for the visitors, while midfielder Acosta is on international duty with Honduras.
Highlighted Player (Diego Rubio):
Diego Rubio is a Chilean attacker who signed his first professional deal with Colo-Colo. Rubio, though, made only eight league appearances (scoring three goals) for the Chilean outfit and in 2011 he moved to Europe, signing a deal with Primeira Liga team Sporting Lisbon. After playing only 11 league matches for the Lions, the 179-cm tall striker joined Spanish club Valladolid at the age of 22.
It has to be noted that during his spell with Sporting Lisbon he was loaned to the likes of Pandurii Targu Kiu and Sandnes Ulf. On September 1, 2016 Diego Rubio signed a permanent teal with Sporting Kansas City and he has been playing for the MLS club ever since.
Rubio was born on May 15, 1993 in Santiago, the capital of Chile, and he made his debut for the Chilean national football team in June, 2011 against Paraguay. His contract with Sporting Kansas City expires on June 30, 2017.
Highlighted Team (FC Dallas):
Despite making it to the 2010 MLS Cup final, Dallas eventually failed to win the domestic trophy. The Toros (Bulls) were beaten by Colorado in the final played at BMO Field in Toronto and you should bear in mind that the Rapids scored the winner in the extra time.
That was the first and only time Dallas participated in the MLS Cup final, but in 2016 the club won the Supporters’ Shield and the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. The Toros play their home games at Toyota Stadium, the venue that was opened in August, 2005. The stadium’s original name was Pizza Hut Park, but in September 2013 it was renamed as Toyota Stadium after Pizza Hut Park left as a main sponsor.
FC Dallas wear red shits with white stripes when playing at home, while their secondary colors are white and blue. Former Ajax and River Plate ace Mauro Rosales, who joined the Toyota Stadium outfit in 2016, is regarded as one of the club most significant stars.
