Austin FC will be looking to keep their playoffs hopes alive when they take on Colorado Rapids on Thursday morning. Los Verdes are undefeated in their previous four MLS games after playing out a 1-1 draw with San Jose Earthquakes at the weekend, but they do not want to stop now. Austin had 1.23 xG and 16 goal attempts in that encounter. They have won 40% of their last 10 home matches, scoring 1.60 goals per game and conceding just 0.80.
Colorado, meanwhile, aim to recover from a disappointing 3-0 loss to Columbus Crew as they look to stay inside the Western Conference’s top seven. Diop, Ku-DiPietro, and Steffen are injured for the visitors. Colorado have struggled badly on the road, losing all three of their last away matches while failing to score in each, conceding 2.33 goals per game. Their overall defensive record is much stronger, though, with clean sheets in 60% of their last 10 matches.
As Colorado’s away struggles strongly favour the hosts, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Austin to Win to Nil and Under 3.5 goals (75% H2H).
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 10 September 2026 at 01:30.
