We said: Colorado Rapids 2-3 Los Angeles FC

These two teams have built a solid foundation, and they are both collectively strong, which should be more than enough to see them each make the playoffs this season. Ultimately, we believe that the attacking depth of LA is just a little better than the Burgundy Boys, whose new number nine, Zardes, is still trying to get his feet wet in Colorado. Read more.
