Colorado Rapids look to break out of a funk when they battle rival Real Salt Lake on Saturday night in the Rocky Mountain Cup at Commerce City, Colo. The Rapids have dropped their last three matches and are winless over their last five outings.

What's at stake?

Colorado has been blanked in each of its past two games, including a 2-0 road loss to San Diego FC. Rapids coach Chris Armas said, "The margins are thin in this sport, in our league and in the Western Conference."

Recent form

The Rapids have struggled to find the back of the net, with just 15 goals this season. Rafael Navarro and Djordje Mihailovic lead the team with five goals each.
