Real Salt Lake are tenth in the Western Conference on 29 points from 22 matches: eight wins, five draws and nine defeats, 36 goals scored and 35 conceded. At America First Field the record is solid, seven wins, two draws and two defeats in eleven games with 24 goals scored and 15 conceded; on the road, by contrast, just one win, three draws and seven defeats, 12 goals scored and 20 conceded. Their last five outings brought no win: a draw, three defeats and another draw. New York City FC have the same 29 points and sit seventh in the Eastern Conference after 23 rounds: seven wins, eight draws and eight defeats, 36 goals scored and 31 conceded. Away from home they have won three times, drawn four and lost four in eleven trips, with 11 goals scored and 13 conceded. The visitors' recent stretch is thin too: two defeats followed by three draws. The competition average is 3.21 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.
