Supporters Shield leading Colorado Rapids take on Columbus Crew SC in a match that pits two of the more surprising teams in MLS:
The Rapids were supposed to suck this year and sit bottom of the Western Conference. They are now 7-2-2 and top of the league.
Crew SC made it all the way to MLS Cup last year narrowing losing that match. They are now in a relegation spot (if MLS had relegation) as they are 18th in the league on points.
Many story lines abound in this one but the goal for the Rapids is to grab a road result, if not outright win this match.
