Prediction: 1-1
Colorado Rapids
Sporting Kansas City will be aiming to overtake Seattle Sounders in top position when they take on Colorado Rapids on Sunday morning. The Wizards are undefeated in the previous five league fixtures, with the team keeping a clean sheet in three of their last four MLS games. Sporting aim to return to winning ways, but they will have to do it without suspended midfielder Remi Walter, who was sent off in the goalless draw with Minnesota United.
The Rapids, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win. The visitors are brimming with confidence ahead of the trip to Kansas City, but beating Sporting at Children’s Mercy Park is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Midfielder Younes Namil remains in Colorado’s recovery room.

Highlighted Team (Colorado Rapids):
Colorado Rapids is 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 colors are red, sky blue and white, but they were yellow shirts and blue shorts when playing on the travels.
