Colorado Rapids<\/a> host San Jose Earthquakes<\/a> at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on Saturday, October 10 (9:30 PM ET \/ 8:30 PM CT \/ 6:30 PM PT).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Neither Colorado Rapids nor San Jose Earthquakes carries any fresh team news into this one, and both sides should be able to field their preferred options at kickoff. Preston Judd<\/a> has been the Earthquakes’ spearhead with 15 goals already this season, with Timo Werner and Ousseni Bouda offering support up top and Beau Leroux and Nikolas Tsakiris supplying the service from midfield. The Rapids lean heavily on attacking midfielder Paxten Aaronson, who has 7 goals and 51 chances created from the number 10 role, while striker Darren Yapi (3 goals) leads the line.<\/p>\n

This looks set to be an open, back-and-forth affair rather than a cagey stalemate. San Jose arrive in better form, unbeaten in their last five (D W W D W) and fourth in the Western Conference<\/a>, while Colorado have been streakier, with two defeats either side of a win and two draws across their last five. Goals should come at both ends \u2014 Aaronson is the main creative and scoring outlet for the Rapids, and Judd’s record in front of goal travels well \u2014 but Colorado’s extra firepower at home should just be enough to get them over the line.<\/p>\n
