New York City vs Colorado Rapids

New York City will be overwhelming favourites to maintain their impressive spell of form when they meet underperforming Colorado Rapids at the Yankee Stadium.

New York City have hit the ground running since a scoreless home draw with Sporting Kansas City in early May, racking up a four-match winning MLS streak. Defensively robust, the NYC kept a clean sheet in all four victories. Yet, all four produced under 2.5 total goals, highlighting the potential for a low-scoring contest. Topically, the ‘Pigeons’ have registered five shutouts in their last six competitive home fixtures (W4, D2). Against this backdrop, three of New York’s four previous league meetings with Colorado have contained 3+ total goals. A ferocious start could be on the cards, as five (62.5%) of New York’s eight MLS home outings this season have featured an opener within 15 minutes of play.

Meanwhile, Colorado Rapids’ patchy form has seen them alternate between victories (3) and defeats (3) in six MLS matches since a goalless home draw with Charlotte in late April. Since four (67%) of those results (win/loss) yielded a clean sheet, Robin Fraser’s men will seek a flying start at the Yankee Stadium. An early strike would bode well for Colorado’s hopes of landing their first MLS away win of the season after six winless road trips (D1, L5). However, the visitors have only netted a measly four goals across their six MLS travels this term. Moreover, they’ve lost their last four league games away from home, conceding before half-time in three of them.
