Odds
Match Preview
The Philadelphia Union will play no part in the upcoming 2025 Leagues Cup, meaning that their full attention will be on this weekend’s clash against the Colorado Rapids. They have enjoyed an excellent season to this point after winning 14 of their 24 matches, and they sit third in the Eastern Conference standings.
However, they will be aiming to get their campaign back on track this Saturday after playing out a 1-1 draw against the Houston Dynamo last weekend. Being back in front of their own fans will be a major plus, as they have won eight of their 12 matches at Subaru Park in 2025.

The Colorado Rapids sit in a promising position in the Western Conference standings, and they have avoided defeat in their last two matches in the MLS. However, like their opponents, they could only play out a draw in their previous outing, tying 3-3 against the Seattle Sounders.
Colorado’s draw last weekend means that they have now failed to win in their last four matches on the road. Overall, this season, the Rapids have recorded just two away wins in their last eleven matches. They have failed to score in a staggering 36% of those fixtures, and have kept clean sheets in just 18%.
Head-to-Head Record
Philadelphia have a strong recent record in this fixture, as they have gone three without defeat against Colorado. Meanwhile, the Rapids have recorded just a single victory in the last nine head-to-head encounters between the sides.
Philadelphia Union vs. Colorado Rapids Picks
The Rapids have found wins on the road hard to come by this season, which makes this challenge extremely daunting. Philadelphia will have no future commitments to overshadow this clash, and that could be an important factor worth considering when making picks.
