Over the next few days, we’ll be taking a closer look at the four first-round playoff matchups.
Major League Soccer Playoffs: Colorado Rapids Face Wounded Columbus Crew
We’ll give lineup projections, take a look at the various key matchups, look at the head-to-head records and even give you a little history lesson. Each match will also have something we are calling Match Reference Cards, something we started doing at Sounder at Heart and are bringing to the soccer hub.
Those cards give you a graphical representation of each teams’ formations as well as give you the pertinent statistical and broadcast information.
The first of the series will the Crew-Rapids series which kick off on Thursday.
