Colorado Rapids
Minnesota United and Colorado Rapids go head to head at Allianz Field on Sunday morning. The Loons aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Seattle Sounders and Austin, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Colorado. All Eric Dick, Chase Gasper, and Patrick Weah are all out of contention with injuries for the home team. The Rapids, on the other hand, head into the match following a 3-1 loss to Dallas.
Since Colorado will go for a win in Sunday’s showdown as well, punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on both teams to score. In their last meeting in the Major League Soccer Colorado defeated Minnesota 3-1, and yet another high-scoring affair is on the horizon. Both Aboubacar Keita and Braian Galvan remain in the recovery room with long-term injuries.
