DC United (1) vs. Colorado 8pm: DC United even though they’re one of the bottom feeders in the MLS again this year has started to turn the corner lately, winning against Vancouver, drawing vs. LA Galaxy, Toronto and losing by 1 vs. New England and NY Red Bulls. Wayne Rooney’s signing from Man United will get fans pumped up and more fans in the stands. Colorado is even more terrible than their opponent giving up 3 more goals this year and lost/drew 10 out of their 11 games. The Rapids also have to fly cross country after a 2-2 game vs. RSL earlier in the week.

Real Salt Lake/San Jose Over 3 10:30pm: These two teams have combined to give up 79 goals this year. One is in 6th spot somehow in the west and one is in last place. San Jose had to play on Wednesday (another loss 1-0 SEA) so their bad defense will get worse believe it or not and Real Salt Lake gave up 12 goals in their last 6 matches. The real factor in this pick is RSL’s offense, even though their defensive play is far below average, they have firepower and will use it later this evening.
