One of Major League Soccer’s best rivalries is back in action on Sunday as the Colorado Rapids get set to take the field against Real Salt Lake at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, where kick-off is set for 5:30 p.m. (MT).
Here are Three Points to consider ahead of Sunday night’s clash:
1. Spoiler alert!
It’s been a roller-coaster season for the Colorado Rapids who, just one year removed from a spot in the Western Conference Championship game, now find themselves mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. However, despite the drop in form, the Rapids have been making the most of their opportunities to play the spoiler in recent weeks having gone 2-2-2 in their last six matches, including wins over playoff hopefuls Houston and Montreal, as well as draws against NYCFC and Western Conference foes FC Dallas.
