Rapids Need 3 Tomorrow Night

 


Austin is back in town for another game against a Texas team this season.  If you remember (And I understand if you don't) Austin was our opponent in our home opener this year and it didn't go well.  Time to get those 3 points back in what, at least on paper, is our easiest game remaining this season.  After this it gets harder for the last 8 games.  Kickoff tomorrow is at 7pm.

Disciplinary Report:
ONE CAUTION FROM SUSPENSION: D Lalas Abubakar, M Collen Warner, F Diego Rubio
TWO CAUTIONS FROM SUSPENSION:  D Auston Trusty, D Danny Wilson, M Braian Galvan

There are no reports of any injuries, so everyone should be available, but we know how that's gone this season.


That's the 11 I expect, the formation is fungible.  I don't think we can afford to rest people for Sunday in Seattle with our recent results.  We need to get the 3 at home and worry about Sunday on Sunday.

Prediction: 1-0 win, goal by Barrios.  This should be a bigger win than that, but our struggles in front of goal leave me hesitant to predict anything more than the bare minimum.  The Rapids control the game and get the 3 points, but its not the breakout game we're hoping for.  I expect KC and Seattle to win tomorrow as well so the standings won't change.
