The Colorado Rapids host an in-form Houston Dynamo outfit in the Western Conference of the MLS tomorrow in what is set to be a crucial game for the home side. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes in the MLS over the past few weeks and will try to take three points away from this game.
The Houston Dynamo have turned their season around over the past month and have one of the most potent attacking combinations in the MLS Western Conference. The away side has scored an incredible 10 goals in its last three games and has the upper hand in this fixture.
The Colorado Rapids have not been at their best this season and are currently in 11th place in the MLS table. The Rapids have several defensive issues to sort out and have to be at their best to prevent the Houston Dynamo from coming away from this match with an easy victory.
