Minnesota United are one of the form teams in the Western Conference right now, though they have dipped a little with four points from their last three. Colorado have taken just a single point from their last five since beating Houston 6-2, and their 20 goals conceded in 12 games is a figure that tells the story of a defense that hasn’t been able to hold shape. The gap in momentum coming into this one is stark.<\/p>\n

The Loons have the home advantage and the better recent form \u2014 a combination that should translate into three points at Allianz Field. The MLS standings<\/a> show Minnesota well-placed to push further into the top half of the West.<\/p>\n\n\n
