While the Houston Dynamo sit at the bottom of the Western Conference and have nothing to play for today, the Colorado Rapids have secured their playoff spot after beating the Portland Timbers 1-0 on Wednesday.
Head coach Robin Fraser is starting a mix of regulars and usual subs, including Braian Galvan, Jeremy Kelly, and Nicolas Mezquida, who are all getting their second starts of the season. Houston has also made a few changes to their line-up, but it will be interesting to see how Kelly holds down the right side against the Dynamo offense.
