When: 7 p.m. Saturday
Where: Rio Tinto Stadium; Sandy, Utah

Ain’t that a RioT. The Rapids have never won an MLS game at Rio Tinto Stadium, where their record is 0-9-4 all-time in league play. Rapids head coach Anthony Hudson, who will be participating in his first-ever Rocky Mountain Cup match, told 950 AM this week he’s confident Colorado can snap the streak, adding that it will be important to play with an “edge” and to not be overconfident.
