Colorado Rapids vs FC Dallas Predictions

• At least four goals have been scored in all three of Colorado Rapids’ home MLS games this year.
• Dallas have lost both times on the road in 2021.
• Both teams have scored in all three of Colorado’s home MLS matches and four of the last five contests involving Dallas.

Rapids run to continue against wasteful Dallas

A third home win on the bounce could take the Colorado Rapids into the top three of the Western Conference this weekend and it is hard to make a case against them extending that run.

The 2010 MLS Cup winners like to play an open and attacking brand of soccer which has seen them involved in some high scoring games.

All but two of the Rapids’ six games have featured at least three goals – a statistic that is more than matched by opponents Dallas coming into this one.

But Luchi Gonzalez’s side have picked up many fewer points than their hosts this weekend, despite having similar records for goals scored and conceded.

With only one goal from Ricardo Pepi and one assist from fellow striker Franco Jara so far this season, the Toros’ problem is clear.

Gonzalez maintains his side are creating enough opportunities but they need to turn it around quickly or face becoming detached from the playoff race.

Colorado’s approach should assist their search for a greater end product, so we can see this being a typical cascade of chances for both sides at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.

The Rapids should run out winners with both teams on the scoresheet in a home win the play that most appeals.
