Both Colorado Rapids and Austin FC will look to recover from disappointing weekend defeats when they go head to head at Dick's Sporting Goods Park on Sunday morning. Colorado were beaten 1-0 by St Louis City last time out and will now have to cope without suspended defender Rob Holding. The Rapids have been relatively solid at home, collecting 1.4 points per game across their last five matches there, but their attacking output remains a concern, with only 0.9 goals scored per game over their last ten fixtures.
Austin FC, meanwhile, arrive in Colorado after a frustrating 3-0 loss to Houston Dynamo. Despite the scoreline, Los Verdes created opportunities with 15 attempts and five shots on target, showing they can still threaten going forward. However, their away form has been a major issue, with Austin failing to win any of their last six road matches while conceding 3.5 goals per game in away fixtures. Bell and Desler are doubtful, but there are no fresh injury concerns for the visitors. With both teams struggling for consistency, a closely contested encounter is expected.
Colorado's recent matches have been relatively low-scoring, averaging only 2.1 goals per game across their last ten. Therefore, Under 2.5 goals seems like the best betting option for this MLS clash, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 2 August 2026 at 02:30.
