Under 0.5 Colorado Rapids Goals
Colorado Rapids couldn’t score a single goal in their last visit to PayPal Park and we feel that the time is right for a second back-to-back goalless game for coach Robin Fraser’s boys. The 56-year-old manager will undoubtedly opt to make a few changes to his starting XI due to the many players that are out injured but we’re not sure if the substitutes have the required arsenal to deal with an in-form San Jose Earthquakes. After all, the Quakes were quite dominant in their last home game against Vancouver Whitecaps and while the visitors did find the net, they had very few good goalscoring opportunities in general as they had only two shots on target.
San Jose Earthquakes to Win
Our second San Jose Earthquakes vs Colorado Rapids prediction is giving the Goonies. The visitors have way too many injuries to be competitive against San Jose Earthquakes. The Jack Price-shaped hole at the center of the pitch will not go unnoticed as Colorado Rapids has been undoubtedly one of Colorado Rapids’ key players over the last few years.
Furthermore, San Jose Earthquakes have a somewhat solid record against Colorado Rapids when it comes to playing at home – 2-1-1.

Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Last Result
San Jose Earthquakes
The Goonies seem up to par this season despite losing their opening 2023 game against Atlanta United. The 2-1 loss definitely hurt Luchi Gonzalez’s boys but seeing as they were quick to react to pipe Vancouver Whitecaps 2-1 on the 5th of March, we think that our San Jose Earthquakes vs Colorado Rapids prediction this week are a slam dunk.
Predicted lineup – Daniel (GK), Trauco, Mensah, Rodrigues, Marie, Gruezo, Yueill, Cowell, Monteiro, Espinoza & Ebobisse
Colorado Rapids
Despite having 60% possession on the 5th of March, coach Robin Fraser’s boys couldn’t find the net against Sporting KC. In fact, it was the visitors at DSG Park who should’ve gotten the three points as they had a whopping 11 shots on target! William Yarbrough pulled off a remarkable piece of goalkeeping to win Colorado Rapids their first 2023 point.
Predicted lineup – Yarbrough (GK), Gersbach, Maxso, Abubakar, Rosenberry, Ronan, Bassett, Priso, Nicholson, Barrios & Yappi
