✨ Prediction
We believe that Real Salt Lake and St. Louis City should both be able to find the back of the net at least once here although it’s difficult at this stage to select a clear winner.
Let’s see what happens, but it could well be that we get quite a few goals with scores finishing level. That’s why our selection here is for a very even contest with a 2-2 scoreline when the referee blows the final whistle.
