Recent form

Vancouver Whitecaps

The Vancouver Whitecaps are currently struggling in the league, as evidenced by their recent form. In their last six matches, they have suffered four defeats, drawn once, and managed only a single victory. This poor run of results includes a streak of three consecutive losses, which is a concerning trend for the team. Additionally, the Whitecaps have been eliminated from the Canadian Championship after a 1-0 defeat to Cavalry FC. While there haven't been any particularly high-scoring games during this period, the team has conceded an average of 1.5 goals per game, which is a significant contributing factor to their recent struggles.

Colorado Rapids

The Colorado Rapids have had a mixed run of form in their last six games, with their most recent match ending in a 3-1 defeat against Houston Dynamo. Prior to that, they were involved in a high-scoring 3-3 draw with Minnesota United, following a disappointing 5-3 loss to Real Salt Lake. The Rapids did manage to secure a narrow 1-0 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps, but that was preceded by a 3-2 home defeat to San Jose Earthquakes. Their only other win in this period came against New York City FC, where they emerged 2-0 victors. The team has been involved in several high-scoring encounters, with 67% of their games featuring over 2.5 goals, and both teams finding the net in 67% of the matches as well.
