Ahead of Saturday’s first of two trips to Vancouver Whitecaps FC (Altitude 8:00 p.m MT), here are 10 things that you may, or may not, have known.
1. This game will come exactly five years after the two teams first met in MLS, on July 9, 2011. The Rapids won 2-1, thanks to goals from Conor Casey and Scott Palguta.
2. Colorado enjoys an 8-5-1 record against the Whitecaps. That stat is aided by an impressive 6-1-0 run at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
3. Saturday’s encounter will be an eighth for the Rapids at BC Place.
