Week 16 Previews

Full slate of games including an afternoon affair and evening game on Friday.

Colorado at RBNY
Afternoon game featuring two of MLS' less exciting teams. The Red Bulls are still looking for a coach (could it be former USMNT head man Bruce Arena?) and until they find one they'll still flounder. But not against the Rapids.
My Prediction: RBNY 2 - 0 Colorado

RSL at NE Revolution
An absent Clint Dempsey (courtesy poor decisions via MLS HQ) will put a damper on the recently surging Revs but if you're going to have to play a game (or two) without Dempsey, RSL is the team to play.
My Prediction: NE 2 - 1 RSL

--------------------------------
FCD at Chicago
The Brimstone Cup is up at Toyota Park this Saturday as the Fire try to bounce back from defeat and FCD tries to make everyone else remember they're still a really good team.
My Prediction: FCD 1 - 1 Chicago

Columbus at DCU
DCU rolled over Celtic FC Wednesday night much like they have been the rest of the league this year. Granted, it wasn't a full strength, in-form, mid-season team and it was just an exhibition but it was impressive none the less. Columbus won't put up much of a test and DC will easily pick up their 13th win of the season.
My Prediction: DCU 3 - 1 Columbus

Houston at KC
Brian Ching and company roll into KC to take on a team still looking for it's scoring punch. Ching will net one in this game. Will either of the Wizards dynamic-duo of Wolff and Johnson do the same? The Wizards faithful sure hope so.
My Prediction: Houston 2 - 1 KC

LA "at" Chivas USA
It's Superclasico time at the HDC as LA takes on Chivas USA in the late game. The Galaxy is still slowly improving and rediscovering their winning ways (helped tremendously by the return of Landon Donovan) and the Goats are just as wiley as ever. There's a chance the Galaxy might steal the win from CUSA but don't bet a lot on it.
My Prediction: Chivas USA 3 - 2 LA
