Minnesota United team news and form: Eric Ramsay must prove his worth
They say a good manager is one who knows how to find solutions to injury and suspension issues. Well, it’s time for Ramsay to prove himself, as he will not be able to count on defender-in-chief Hugo Bacharach who picked up a red card a few weeks ago.

Colorado Rapids team news and form: 2nd-place within arm’s reach
If the visitors prove our Minnesota United vs Colorado Rapids predictions correct, we could see Armas’ boys in 2nd after this matchday. However, in order for this to happen, Real Salt Lake City will also have to drop points.

Player to watch: Djordje Mihailovic
Mihailovic managed to score a last-second penalty in Colorado Rapids’ last game. Seeing as he is on penalty duty for his manager, we believe he has a good chance of sliding it past shot-stopper St. Clair on the 29th of September.
Second player to watch: Rafael Navarro
With a massive 14-goal tally behind him, Navarro is a man on a mission. He wants to secure the Top Goalscorer Award in Major League Soccer. However, he’d have to do even better, as Christian Benteke of DC United has scored 19 so far.
