As much as we’ve been talking about the Colorado Rapids and their difficulties on the road, tonight is another big away match - the Burgundy Boys are taking on defending US Open Cup Champions FC Dallas tonight in the round of 16. While Dallas has lost just once at home so far this season, they have only won two of their last 10 games, and both were against Real Salt Lake. Meanwhile, the Rapids are 0-7-0 on the road this season (perhaps they’re due for a win?).
In the previous round of the 2017 US Open Cup, the Rapids made a second half comeback to beat OKC Energy 3-2, while FC Dallas barely beat the Tulsa Roughnecks 2-1 on an own goal in stoppage time.
