We should be in for an intruiging MLS match as Real Salt Lake welcome Minnesota United to America First Field. Only three points separate these two sides in the Western Conference, though Minnesota has played a game more. Both sides are in somewhat inconsistent form. The Claret and Cobalt has won two, drawn two and lost two of their last six fixtures, though they are unbeaten in four. Wins against Atlante and FC Juarez in the Leagues Cup would've given Salt Lake a much needed confidence boost as they return to MLS action. As for Minnesota, their win against Atlante in the Leagues Cup last time out was their first win since their 3-2 victory over Columbus in May.
Real Salt Lake's MLS home form is mightily impressive. They've won seven from eight, scoring 18 goals in the process. It's their home form that has kept the within touching distance of the Champions Cup qualification places, their form away from America First Field is very poor. Minnesota's form away is decent, winning four and drawing one of their 9 matches so far. So, on the surface this appears to be a difficult match to predict.
We are, though, going for a home win. It's hard to ignore Salt Lake's excellent home form, unbeaten in the MLS this season. True, Minnesota have the ability to cause problems but Salt Lake should have just enough to see them through.
