Real Salt Lake vs Minnesota United Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer

Prediction published on 9/30/24, 9:30 PM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 10/1/24 at 12:26 PM in Major League Soccer Picks

Real Salt Lake is in third place and with three games remaining, they will host Minnesota Utd at America First Stadium on Wednesday. Minnesota United is almost assured of a spot in the Play-In at least, but it is important for them to take the opportunity to climb one more position in the Eastern Conference table in order to qualify directly for the Playoffs. The same goes for the locals, who will want to stay in third place to climb to second place in order to have a more solid position in the Playoffs.

Real Salt Lake is coming off a painful draw against Austin FC at Q2 Stadium on September 28, they were up 2-0 with 10 minutes left but could not stop the final onslaught of the home team that tied them with two goals at the end of the game.

Real Salt Lake is another of the many teams that secured a high position in the Conference but slowed down in performance in the last stretch of the season, where in fact they only won 2 of the last 9 games. If they win the Conference, which seems unlikely, it would be the first time in the team's history that they would achieve it.
