Real Salt Lake City vs Toronto FC Preview and Team News

Real Salt Lake City Team News

Two wins and three losses from their last 5 outings in the MLS show that Real Salt Lake have started off the new season in inconsistent form. Worryingly for Real Salt Lake, they have not kept a clean sheet in this run, highlighting defensive worries ahead of their home clash against Toronto FC.

Overall, they have 3 wins and 5 defeats from their opening 8 matches in the MLS. They have managed just 8 goals in 8 matches, while conceding 13 times in the process. My analysis shows that they will need to fix their defensive frailties to return to winning ways on Sunday.

They will have to make do without the injured Zac MacMath, Matthew Bell, and Kobi Henry this weekend.

Real Salt Lake City predicted lineup vs Toronto FC (4-2-3-1): Cabral; Katranis, Vera, Glad, Hidalgo; Eneli, Ojeda; Goncalves, Luna, Marczuk; Piol.

Toronto FC Team News

Toronto have had an underwhelming winless start to their MLS campaign. In their opening 8 matches, they have 4 draws and 4 losses. They have managed to score 7 goals while conceding 13 times.

Last time out, Toronto held Minnesota to a 0-0 draw at home, which was their third consecutive draw in the MLS, showing slight improvement, but meaning that they stay winless. 

My preview does not back Toronto FC for a turnaround against Real Salt Lake this weekend. They have shown weakness in attack with a lack of cutting edge, while their defensive frailties mean that they cannot keep a clean sheet.

A lengthy injury list exacerbates their challenge. They have six players sidelined with injury. These include Richie Laryea, Deandre Kerr, Henry Wingo, Zane Monlouis, Ola Brynhildsen, and Nicksoen Gomis.

Toronto FC predicted lineup vs Real Salt Lake City (4-2-3-1): Johnson; Thompson, Long, Rosted, Petretta; Flores, Osorio; Bernardeschi, Insigne, Corbeanu; Etienne.

Real Salt Lake City vs Toronto FC Prediction 

  • Pick: Real Salt Lake City Win
  • Odds: -164 (20Bet)
  • Score prediction: Real Salt Lake City 1-0 Toronto FC

My head-to-head comparison shows Real Salt Lake City have a slight edge based on current form and confidence ahead of the match. The hosts will have the advantage of playing at the America First Field, especially given Toronto’s poor form away from home.

Toronto will be dealing with a much more extensive injury list compared to Real Salt Lake City, which will affect their tactical flexibility.

The fact that Toronto have not won a single match this season, their struggles in front of goal, and their defensive frailties, all give Real Salt Lake City an edge in this match.

Real Salt Lake City vs Toronto FC Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Any Team To Win To Nil – Yes
  • Odds: +125 (20Bet)

My analysis shows that this match is likely to be low-scoring. The two sides are closely matched. While Real Salt Lake have scored 8 times in 8 outings, Toronto FC have scored 7 times over the same period. The two sides have both conceded 13 goals.

These statistics show that this match will not have many goals, and that the victor is likely to do it with a “to nil” scoreline.
