Isidro Metapan - Colorado Rapids

CONCACAF Champions League, Group Stage

Terrible run of form for the Rapids, as they have a dreadful series of 8 consecutive matches without a win in all competitions, and are now in danger to miss the play-offs in the MLS. Since in the Champions league they already have very slim chances of progressing, they have chosen to focus all their energies on the domestic league. And that translates into the fact that a lot of their regular first-team players have been left behind in the USA, with only a few of them and a bunch of reserves/youngsters making the trip to El Salvador. So it pretty much looks like the Colorado Rapids are throwing in the towel for the Champions League season. Isidro Metapan are not a great name in the Central America area, but they are a solid home team, proof of that being their excellent 2-0 win over Santos Laguna. 3 points in this match will take them to a total of 9 points, which should 99% percent be enough to clinch the qualification, so expect a determined performance from them, especially since the opponent is one they should be beating comfortably. Odds moved a bit, but there is still a lot of value in this bet. GL!

Metapan (-0.25 AH) @ 1.97, 4/10
Result: 1-3, LOST
