Notes
- Rapids defender Lalas Abubakar scored an 89th-minute equalizer in the club’s 2-2 draw against arch-rivals Real Salt Lake on Saturday night. The goal marked a new single-season career high for the Ghanaian who now has three goals in his 2022 account. Abubakar scored a goal in both of the Rapids’ matches against RSL this season, both game equalizers
- Midfielder Ralph Priso, who was acquired by the Rapids last week in a trade with Toronto FC, could potentially be available to feature for the club ahead of their match against Orlando City SC on Wednesday. The 19-year-old scored two goals and registered 1,008 minutes over 25 appearances during his three seasons as a professional for the Reds.
- Orland City SC head coach Oscar Pareja earned his very first head coaching opportunity in MLS in 2012 when he was named the head coach of the Rapids. Pareja led the club to the playoffs in 2013 and finished with a 25-30-13 record across two seasons with the club.
- GK William Yarbrough is one shutout away from surpassing Tim Howard for fourth-most clean sheets in Rapids history. His six shutouts so far this season are T-2nd in MLS. The two-time Liga MX champion is also one win away from tying Howard and Joe Cannon for fourth-most wins in Rapids history (29)
