The Colorado Rapids return from the international break on a three-match losing streak, having failed to score in their last two outings. They sit 10th in the Western Conference with 22 points and are just one point above the playoff line. Despite their struggles, Colorado have not lost at home this season when scoring first. The LA Galaxy, meanwhile, remain bottom of the West with just 8 points from 18 matches. However, they’ve shown signs of life, earning four points in their last two games, including a 3–3 draw with St. Louis City.
