Colorado Rapids 3-0 Vancouver Whitecaps

Current streaks

Recent form

Colorado Rapids

The Colorado Rapids are experiencing a challenging run of form, having won just once in their last six matches. They are currently on a two-game losing streak, conceding five goals without reply in those fixtures. Their defensive frailties are evident, having kept only one clean sheet in this period whilst conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game. However, their 3-3 draw against New England Revolution stands out as a high-scoring affair, contributing to their total goals average of 2.83 per match. Despite their struggles, the Rapids have managed to maintain a mid-table position, sitting 9th in the league. Their goal-scoring output has been modest, netting just once per game on average, which may be a key area for improvement as they look to climb the table.

Vancouver Whitecaps

The Vancouver Whitecaps have shown mixed form in their recent matches, with a see-sawing pattern of wins and losses in their last six games. Despite this inconsistency, they have managed to secure a strong second position in the league with 38 points from 20 games. Their offensive output has been respectable, averaging 1.67 goals per game, but their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per match. A particularly high-scoring affair was their 3-5 loss to San Diego, contributing to the impressive statistic that 83% of their recent matches have seen over 2.5 goals. The Whitecaps have also demonstrated their ability to keep clean sheets, doing so twice in their last six outings, including a notable 3-0 victory over Seattle Sounders. While they haven't embarked on any extended winning or losing streaks, their ability to bounce back from defeats suggests a resilient squad capable of maintaining their lofty league position.

Recent home/away form

Colorado Rapids

The Colorado Rapids have demonstrated inconsistent form at home in their recent matches, with a pattern of alternating wins and losses. Their last six home games have yielded three victories and three defeats, suggesting a struggle to maintain momentum. Defensively, the Rapids have been relatively solid, keeping three clean sheets in this period. However, their attacking output has been modest, scoring only five goals across these six matches, with no game seeing more than two goals scored in total. This low-scoring trend is further emphasised by the fact that 83% of these matches have featured under 2.5 goals. Interestingly, both teams scored in only 17% of the games, indicating that when the Rapids concede, they often struggle to find the net themselves. Despite their mixed results, the Rapids have managed to maintain a mid-table position in the league, sitting 9th with 26 points from 21 games.

Vancouver Whitecaps

The Vancouver Whitecaps have shown inconsistent form away from home, with their last six away matches yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. Their defensive record has been particularly concerning, conceding a worrying 14 goals in these six matches, averaging 2.33 goals conceded per game. This is exemplified by their heavy 5-0 defeat to Cruz Azul in the CONCACAF Champions League, which stands out as a particularly high-scoring game. On a more positive note, the Whitecaps have managed to score in five of these six away matches, including a thrilling 3-2 victory over Real Salt Lake. Their matches have been notably high-scoring, with 83% of these games seeing over 2.5 goals. Despite their mixed away form, the Whitecaps are performing well in the league overall, currently sitting in 2nd position with 38 points from 20 games.
