The New York Red Bulls (12-11-5, 41 pts.) play host to the Colorado Rapids (7-14-6, 27 pts.) at Red Bull Arena on Saturday, August 31 for Military Appreciation Night, presented by Bayer.
Here are the Keys to the Game, presented by Honda:
New Gaffer
The Colorado Rapids have a new head coach at the helm. The team announced Robin Fraser as their new man in charge.
Fraser served as an assistant with a few clubs, including the New York Red Bulls, and was head coach of Chivas USA. How will Colorado's squad react with Fraser at the helm? We shall see.
Red Rapids
The Rapids will be missing three players for the match at Red Bull Arena.
Kei Kamara received a straight red in Colorado's previous match, while Kellyn Acosta and Lalas Abubakar will miss the match due to yellow card accumulation.
Lock Up
The Red Bulls will look to keep the Rapids out of the back of the net as they search for the seventh clean sheet of the season.
Captain Luis Robles said that the team is talented enough that they should have more than just the six clean sheets on the year, and will look to add to that number over the last six matches left in the MLS regular season.
