Preview | With San Jose Matchup, rapids want to continue an undefeated start by 2025

Commerce City, Colo – The Colorado Rapids (1-0-2, 5 points) are set on the street for their second game in a row, this time against the earthquakes of San Jose (2-1-0, 6 points). The kickoff in the PayPal Park is set for 8:30 p.m. with reporting on the MLS season pass with Apple TV, Coloradorapids.com and the Colorado Rapids app.

Although it is still early in the season, the match on Saturday will prove to be a litmus test for both clubs to see where they correspond to some of the best in the league. Colorado has another strong performance against a conference opponent, while a new side of San Jose in San Jose missed the playoffs last year to give an explanation for himself.

Colorado will continue his impressive defensive game on the street this season, whereby the club allows a goal over her two street games. The Rapids started their 2025 mls season on the street with a 0-0 draw against St. Louis and only blooded the 1-0 victory in the 1-0 victory in Texas last week. During this time, Keegan Rosenberry, Chidozie Awaziem, Ian Murphy, Reggie Cannon and Andreas Maxsø.

A player who pays attention to Colorado is Rafael Navarro, who started the season with a solid form. The Brazilian scored three goals in the last two games, including a clip against FC Dallas and the gaming goal against Austin last weekend. Navarro's achievements brought him the two -time team of the “Matchday” award because he currently took second place in the league in the overall goals.

At the other end for San Jose, some new and familiar faces will be. The earthquakes made major additions to their squad, including head coach Bruce Arena, Josef Martinez, Chicho Arango and the former rapid player Mark-Anthony Kaye.

The earthquakes follow on Saturday after their first loss of the season after winning their openings two games. So far, the association has often found the back of the network to start in 2025 after scoring six goals from six different players. Her most recent matchup was at home against Minnesota United FC, where they fell 1-0.

With a win or draw on Saturday, Colorado will be unbeaten in the first four games to start an MLS season for the first time in club history.
