As the Major League Soccer train rattles on, there's action in Colorado on Friday night, when at Dick's Sporting Goods Park, the Colorado Rapids and Sporting Kansas City will go up against each other. Both teams come into this fixture off the back of tying last time out, with the Rapids holding the Revs to a 3-3 tie in what was an exciting game in New England. That was a decent result on the road, though the SKC boys probably felt a little disappointed by being held 1-1 at home. Then again, they've now avoided defeat in each of their last two, picking up four points during that time, which has allowed the men from Children's Mercy Park to move towards the all-important play-off places.
Friday's hosts also come into this game having avoided defeat in two, with them picking up four points from their last two fixtures too. The Rapids do find themselves in a more favorable league position, sitting just inside the play-off spots, and they'll be hoping to improve on that positive by beating a team that typically struggles on the road.

Our Colorado Rapids vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction
The lively and often dangerous Darren Yapi enjoyed himself last time out, producing not one but two assists against the New England Revolution. With that effort under his belt, and given his rather encouraging stats, the youngster is worth betting on to produce a telling goal contribution against an SKC side that is far from convincing at the back. Our Colorado Rapids vs Sporting Kansas City Pick: Darren Yapi to Score or Assist.
