The Colorado Rapids enter the 2016 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup tonight with a Colorado Derby match against in-state rivals Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC. The Rapids are currently top of the table in Major League Soccer and will be taking on an in-form side in the Switchbacks who are currently in second place (with two games in hand) in the Western Conference of the United Soccer League.
This match is a rematch from the 2015 US Open Cup match that saw the Rapids pick up a 4-1 win over the Switchbacks at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
