An intriguing match in store as Real Salt Lake take on FC Dallas in the MLS Western Conference. Only two points separate these sides in the Western Conference standings, with both in good positions to earn a Round One Series place. Both The Claret and Cobalt and The Bulls are in reasonably good form heading into this one, though both sides will still be looking for improvement. Real Salt Lake has only lost one of their last six, but their only two victories in that run came in the Leagues Cup against FC Juarez and Atlante. As for Dallas, they've won three of their last six including an away victory at Austin last time out.
This fixture tends to provide goals. In the previous six head-to-heads, there's been at least two goals in five of them. Dallas proved victorious in May, running out 3-1 winners at home. They are, though, up against a side who've won seven of their nine home MLS games this season. Dallas' away record is equally as impressive, however, winning five and drawing two from ten.
Calling a winner in this one is a difficult task. Instead, our prediction focuses on the Goals markets. It's a game that should see a few goals scored.

Our Real Salt Lake vs FC Dallas Prediction
While Real Salt Lake are favorites to win, we think it's more difficult to predict than sportsbooks think. Dallas has a great away record, and Salt Lake has numerous injury problems to contend with. It's a tough one to call a result for, so instead we're focusing on goals. We think there'll be a few goals in this game for both sides and so we're predicting both teams will score in a game that will provide over 2.5 goals.
Our prediction for Real Salt Lake vs FC Dallas is: BTTS/Over 2.5 Goals
