Our read before the game

SKC's shaky home form meets RSL's five-game road collapse, expect goals not an away win

Real Salt Lake arrive on a five-game losing streak on the road and without injured forward Ariath Piol, while Sporting Kansas City have managed only one win in their last five at home. Expect goals from two bottom-half sides out of form, not a comfortable away win for the misfiring visitors.

Sporting Kansas City team news
  • Stefan Cleveland: out (ankle)
  • Ryan Schewe: out (hand)
Real Salt Lake team news
  • Ariath Piol: out for season (Achilles surgery)
