Real Salt Lake host Atlético San Luis on August 2 at America First Field, with both clubs in vastly different form entering their second Leagues Cup match. RSL are riding a seven-match unbeaten run across all competitions, including a dramatic 2-2 draw against Club América on Wednesday, followed by a 3-1 shootout win.

The result extended Salt Lake’s recent hot streak, which includes five wins in their last six matches. Their July form has propelled them into the top four of the MLS Western Conference, and they’ve remained dominant at home, unbeaten in their last five in Utah.

Atlético San Luis, on the other hand, are struggling. Last Wednesday, they lost 4-0 to the Portland Timbers in the Leagues Cup opener. The game exposed crucial defensive flaws and came on the heels of consecutive losses in the Liga MX to Monterrey and Chivas.

In the previous three games following a promising opening-day win in the Apertura competition, San Luis have conceded 11 times. Their newly installed manager Guillermo Abascal hasn't been able to calm the team down yet and is coming under increasing pressure. San Luis are still on zero points and only winning will give them the chance of further progress.

RSL, on the other hand, will be able to guarantee progression with a win and will be the favorite on home field, all the more so considering the fact it is at altitude, where they've been difficult to beat.

Our Real Salt Lake vs Atletico San Luis Prediction

Real Salt Lake have been powered by standout individual performances. Goalkeeper Rafael Cabral was the hero against América with eight saves in regulation and two more in the penalty shootout. At the back, center-backs Justen Glad and Marcelo Silva have provided structure and leadership.

Midfielder Diego Luna has been a creative force, scoring against América and pivotal to the recent wins. All the way up top, Jefferson Savarino and Danny Musovski keep spearheading the attack nicely thus far, abetted on the wings by the speed of Andrés Gómez and the midfield variability of Damir Kreilach and Pablo Ruiz. Depth and stability all across the field has enabled Salt Lake to be among the leaders of the competition currently.

San Luis will look to key players for a turnaround. Brazilian striker Léo Bonatini is their primary scoring threat but needs better service. Mateo Klimowicz offers creative spark, while midfield veteran Javier Güémez must help control tempo alongside Juan Sanabria.

On the wings, Jhon Murillo’s pace could cause problems, but San Luis must improve defensively. Unai Bilbao leads the back line and will need to rally his teammates after a poor showing. Goalkeeper Andrés Sánchez had five saves against Portland but couldn’t prevent the rout.

Real Salt Lake are in superior form and playing at home. San Luis have conceded eight goals in their last two and don’t look equipped to slow down RSL’s attack. Our prediction for Real Salt Lake vs. Atlético San Luis: Real Salt Lake to win.
