New England Revolution vs. Colorado Rapids Odds
Saturday was a memorable day for the New England Revolution. Bruce Arena’s team didn’t even play, but this marked the moment they were crowned the Supporters’ Shield winners for the first time in the franchise’s long history. With silverware already in hand, though, the Revs must start planning for their post-season assault.
The Colorado Rapids could still finish top of the pile in the Western Conference, but they must win in Foxborough for that to be a realistic possibility. Here are some tips and information ahead of the Major League Soccer fixture between the New England Revolution and the Colorado Rapids on Wednesday, October 27.
New England Revolution vs. Colorado Rapids Prediction
New England come into this match on the back of a 2-2 away draw against Orlando City, which saw them fight back from two goals down in central Florida. Arena and his players could be forgiven for being slightly distracted for this match given what had happened just one day previously, but focus will be required for this clash.
Matt Polster will be available again for the home side after serving a suspension, while the Colorado Rapids have a full squad to choose from for this fixture. Robin Fraser’s team will be dangerous opponents for the newly-crowned Supporters’ Shield winners, with Colorado fresh from a confidence-boosting 2-0 win over the Portland Timbers.
However, the omens are good for the Revolution, who have won their last four home matches against the Rapids in all competitions. They have also scored two or more goals in four of their last six league matches and are unbeaten in their last nine MLS games in front of their supporters at Gillette Stadium.
There have been over 2.5 total goals scored in Colorado’s last four away games in MLS, while New England has conceded at least two goals in their last three matches. This points to Wednesday’s meeting between the two sides being potentially laden with goals. The match could swing in either direction.
