Personal Area
Match Overview
The Dick's Sporting Goods Park Stadium will witness an interesting game between the Colorado Rapids and the Vancouver Whitecaps in the Major League Soccer competition on Thursday. Both these teams will be keen on getting a positive result by the end of the evening, despite them being ranked a ways off from each other in the Supporters' Shield rankings at the time of writing.
Key Highlights
While Vancouver are ranked in the 18th position of the Supporters' Shield with 22 points to their name, Colorado are perched right at the bottom, in the 29th position, with a mere 13 points inside their kitty. Colorado will also be beset by the problem of lack of output in front of goal. They have not got on the scoresheet in the last two matches that they have played.
Injury Report
Lalas Abubakar and Braian Galvan have been suspended for Colorado while the likes of Jack Price, Diego Rubio and Abraham Rodriguez will not. be available for selection due to injuries. For Vancouver, Ali Ahmed and Alessandro Schopf have been ruled out of this game owing to injuries of their own.
Prediction
Although Vancouver have not kept a clean sheet in the last 5 matches that they have played in, Julian Gressel is ranked 3 in big chances created in the competition (12). This will give them the confidence to put up a good showing in front of goal. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game.
