Tonight 7:00pm ET, ESPN 2.

Each side is coming off of a loss last week and both sides have players absent due to the Copa America. For some reason I have a feeling this will be an entertaining match.

DC United

5-2-4, 4^th in the East.
United were on a seven match unbeaten streak before last week's loss to Real Salt Lake.
International absences: Jaime Moreno, Bobby Boswell, and Ben Olsen.
Injury: Jamil Walker (out, Achilles rupture). Bryan Namoff (probable, hamstring).
Card Trouble: Facundo Erpen, Christian Gomez, and Bryan Namoff are each two yellow cards from suspension.

Colorado Rapids

4-3-6, 4^th in the West.
The Rapids are in the midst of a four game losing streak, will they end it in Washington?
International absences: Herculez Gomez and Kyle Beckerman.
Injury: Conor Casey (out, hamstring).
Card trouble: Pablo Mastroeni suspended after next yellow card. Roberto Brown and Mike Petke suspended after next two yellow cards.

Note: team record format is Wins-Draws-Losses; Home v Away.

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

The match is at RFK stadium and United
usually have a decent, enthusiastic crowd for games.
