Against Portland, Son shot ten times in a single game: LAFC use him more as a creator, yet when he decides to go for goal the attempts pile up quickly.

Analyst
Real Salt Lake are tenth in the Western Conference on 28 points from 21 games, with eight wins, four draws and nine defeats and a 34-33 goal record. Venue matters a great deal here: at the America First Field they have won seven of ten with a 22-13 aggregate, while on the road the tally reads one win, three draws and seven defeats in eleven trips. Their recent stretch has been hard going, with the latest match lost 1-0 away to the Colorado Rapids after a 3-0 defeat at Leon and a 2-1 loss at Orlando. Los Angeles FC are third on 36 points from 23 matches, with ten wins, six draws and seven defeats and the better defensive record of the two, 22 conceded against 36 scored. Away from home they have three wins, four draws and four defeats with a 13-11 goal record. Their last five outings brought three draws and two defeats, with only two goals scored. In previous meetings Los Angeles FC won 3-1 and 4-1 at home and 4-1 in Salt Lake, while in March 2024 Real Salt Lake won 3-0 in front of their own crowd. MLS is averaging 3.20 goals per game. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
