📋 Team News: Colorado Rapids

Ali Fadal (Knee injury) and Zack Steffen (Knee injury) won’t be available for Colorado Rapids manager Chris Armas.

In all likelihood, Colorado Rapids should kick off with a 4-4-2 system, handing starts to N. Defreitas-Hansen, Reggie Cannon, Andreas Maxsö, Ian Murphy, Sam Vines, Theodore Ku-DiPietro, Oliver Larraz, Josh Atencio, Djordje Mihailovic, Darren Yapi and Rafael Navarro.

📰 Team News: Los Angeles Galaxy

Owing to an otherwise available group, there’s only the sole fitness worry for the Los Angeles Galaxy boss Greg Vanney to be concerned about. Riqui Puig (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be in action.

We are inclined to think that The Galactics could decide to elect for a 4-2-3-1 formation by sending out Novak Micovic, Miki Yamane, Zanka, Maya Yoshida, John Nelson, Lucas Sanabria, Isaiah Parente, Gabriel Pec, Marco Reus, Joseph Paintsil and Matheus Nascimento.

⚡ Prediction

We feel that in this game, Los Angeles Galaxy are likely to score a goal against this Colorado Rapids lineup, however that might not be as many as they will have scored against them.

We’re expecting a 2-1 victory for Colorado Rapids at full-time. It really should be an interesting one.
