We said: Sporting Kansas City 1-2 Colorado Rapids

 After being involved in a nine-goal encounter on the weekend, this game can also expect goals at either end of the field, but Colorado's win on Saturday may give them the boost to record their first away win of the season. The Rapids could open a small gap between themselves and the chasing playoff pack, and their superior league position makes them favourites for the three points on Thursday. Read more.
