After winning their first away match in Houston last weekend, the Colorado Rapids are back at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park to take on New York City FC. The Rapids are at the bottom of the Western Conference, while NYCFC is second in the Eastern Conference. That being said, NYC has been dealing with injuries and Patrick Vieira would be smart to not risk playing some of the guys who are questionable in a non-conference match.
STARTING XI FOR COLORADO:
Tim Howard, Eric Miller, Kortne Ford, Axel Sjöberg, Mekeil Williams, Micheal Azira, Jared Watts, Marlon Hairston, Mohammed Saeid, Joshua Gatt, Dominique Badji
Here's how we'll start against @NYCFC: Howard, Miller, Ford, Sjöberg, Williams, Azira, Watts, Hairston, Saeid, Gatt, Badji. pic.twitter.com/FDCaLealk6
