Prediction: 1-0
Colorado Rapids
Houston Dynamo will be aiming to make amends for back-to-back losses to the likes of Real Salt Lake and Montreal Impact when they take on Colorado Rapids at their BBVA Compass Stadium. Houston Dynamo obviously struggle on the travels, but they are tough to beat at home and the fact that they defeated the likes of Toronto, LA Galaxy and New York City in previous three home fixtures is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Colorado. The Rapids, on the other hand, made a very slow start to the season and seeing that they are on a seven-game losing run at the moment, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from Sunday’s football match. In each of previous two meetings between the two teams in MLS Colorado defeated Houston, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.

Highlighted Team (Colorado Rapids):
Colorado Rapids are a Major League Soccer club and they compete in the USA professional soccer league as a member of the Western Conference. Colorado began their play in MLS back in 1996 and 14 years later they managed to win the MLS Cup trophy. The Rapids recorded a 2-1 win over FC Dallas in the final of the tournament, with George John scoring the winner for Gary Smith’s team in the extra time. Colorado made it to the MLS Cup final in 1997 as well, but D.C. United proved to be a big catch for the club in the title game. The Rapids play their home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park and the venue has been Colorado’s home ground since 2007. It has to be noted that the likes of Tim Howard, Carlos Valderama, Claudio Lopez and Jermaine Jones were all part of the club in the past. Colorado’s colours are red, sky blue and white, but they were yellow shirts and blue shorts when playing on the travels.
