Another Top Of The Table Clash

Clash of the Titans!

How often do the Rapids get to say "another" top of the table clash about themselves?  This time its off to KC to play Sporting tomorrow night.  SKC is 2nd on points, 3rd in PPG while the Rapids are 3rd on points and 2nd in PPG.  This is the last look we'll get a KC this season (besides a possible playoff matchup) so it would be good to pull out a win.  Kickoff tomorrow is at 7pm and good luck on TV.

Injury Report:

OUT: M Younes Namli

Disciplinary Report:

ONE CAUTION FROM SUSPENSION: M Jack Price, F Diego Rubio

TWO CAUTIONS FROM SUSPENSION: D Danny Wilson, M Collen Warner

Its going to be kind of important for Price to not pick up a yellow card tomorrow.  Next week's game against San Jose will be during the international window, and Acosta and Kaye were called up by their national teams.  So we can't really afford to lose Price as well for that match.

Everyone is rested and healthy (other than Namli) and we have a full week of rest after this match so there's no reason not to expect the full starting XI in this one.

Prediction: 1-1 draw, goal by Rubio.  These teams have equal defenses while SKC has a better offense than Colorado.  They will have a couple of players missing, and a couple of players who had to travel to LA for the All-Star Game this week.  I think that will even things out, along with Fraser getting this team to play better almost every game.
