Team news & squads
Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC team news
The Switchbacks have endured a challenging start to the season, with just one win and four draws in their first eight league matches, including a 1-1 draw last weekend against Phoenix Rising.
The offseason saw the departure of several key players, and the current squad is still searching for cohesion, especially in defense, where veteran Matt Mahoney leads a backline that has struggled to adapt.
With no major new injuries reported, head coach James Chambers is likely to stick with his established starters as the Switchbacks look to recapture last year’s cup-winning form against MLS opposition.
New York Red Bulls team news
The Red Bulls arrive in Colorado with a lengthy injury list and recent struggles on the road, winless away from home in 2025.
Key absentees include Lewis Morgan, Daniel Edelman, Dylan Nealis, Marcelo Morales, and Raheem Edwards, while Curtis Ofori and Aimar Modelo are both questionable. Despite these setbacks, Emil Forsberg and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting have stepped up in attack, with Choupo-Moting leading the team in goals.
The Red Bulls’ defense, usually a strength, has been inconsistent due to frequent lineup changes. Head coach Sandro Schwarz will likely rotate his squad but is expected to rely on his experienced core as New York looks to secure their first away win of the year and advance to the Round of 16.
