Since the start of September, the Colorado Rapids have won only one of their six matches. Before the FIFA break, they lost 3-2 to the LA Galaxy on the road, and they are preparing to return to action at Sporting Goods Park when they host the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday.
San Jose, like no other team in MLS, is a streaky team. They had an excellent start to the MLS season, but, as has happened in other years, there was a tremendous mid-season slump. From July 22 to September 5, they went winless in eight consecutive matches, but now they seem to have found their winning ways again, as they are undefeated in their last six games.
Before the FIFA break, San Jose managed a 3-1 victory over the Timbers with an electrifying start to the match in which Judd, Lowen, and another Judd scored all three of San Jose's goals before the half-hour mark.
