Our prediction for this MLS match:
Los Angeles FC will be aiming to build on a thrilling 6-2 win over San Jose Earthquakes when they take on Colorado Rapids at BMO Stadium. Los Angeles FC looked sharp in front of goal at the weekend and we are positive that they will adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Colorado. A man to watch in the home team will be Mateusz Bogusz, who scored a brace in the last league match, while Cristian Olivera is on international duty.
The likes of Luis Muller, Maxime Chanot, and Lorenzo Dellavalle miss out with injuries. The Rapids, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win. Given Colorado’s signs of improvement up front, a high-scoring affair is on the horizon at BMO Stadium. Both Jackson Travis and Daniel Chacon are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team, while Moise Bombito is representing Canada at the 2024 Copa America.
Highlighted Team (Los Angeles FC):
Seeing that Los Angeles FC will be competing in Major League Soccer from the 2018 season, the club chiefs did well to reinforce the squad. Several high-profile players joined the club in the winter of 2018, with Mexican ace Carlos Vela being the biggest name to sign a deal with LAFC.
The new expansion team will host their rivals at Banc of California, the stadium which is planned to be opened on April 29, 2018. The venue should hold up to 22,000 spectators. Los Angeles FC will be coached by Bob Bradley in the 2018 MLS campaign and they will be wearing black and gold kits in the USA professional soccer league. Speaking of their bitterest rivals, there will be fireworks when Los Angeles FC face LA Galaxy in the Major League Soccer.
District 9 Ultras and Black Army 1850 are considered the club's biggest supporters groups and it has to be noted that they used to support Chivas USA. Los Angeles FC were founded on October 30, 2014.
