Real Salt Lake vs Vancouver Whitecaps Preview and Team News
Real Salt Lake Team News
Real Salt Lake have had a challenging season. They sit 11th in the MLS Western Conference standings, and their recent form has been horrendous, to say the least. They have lost four of their last five matches, drawing the other, and failed to get on the scoresheet in three of those outings.
Their most recent result was a 0-2 home defeat to New York City FC. Central defender Philip Quinton was found wanting when closely marking his opponents, winning just 50% of his ground duels.
Quinton was not the only one whose performance left much to be desired. Former Premier League defender DeAndre Yedlin won just 33% of his ground duels. This was reflected in Salt Lake’s overall performance. They made 13 tackles and 12 interceptions.
The Claret and Cobalt have five players sidelined by injuries: Lukas Engel, Zach Booth, Griffin Dillon, Justen Glad, and Diego Luna. Stijn Spierings and Sam Junqua remain doubts.
Real Salt Lake predicted lineup vs Vancouver Whitecaps (3-4-2-1): Cabral; Quinton, Arias, Yedlin; Sanabria, Moisa, Caliskan, Katranis; Lobjanidze, Guilavogui; Solans.
Vancouver Whitecaps Team News
The Vancouver Whitecaps lead the MLS Western Conference table. However, they are coming off a heartbreaking 1-2 defeat to CF Montreal in the semifinals of the Canadian Championship.
The Caps conceded two goals in the first half, and Emmanuel Sabbi’s rescue act in stoppage time was not enough to send them through to the final. Having come on in the 58th minute, Sabbi finished the match with 100% shot accuracy.
Midfielder Jeevan Badwal impressed too, as he created a game-high four chances, recorded the most touches in the opposition box (six), and completed 90% of his passes.
The Caps have a long list of injured players. Thomas Muller, Ranko Vesselinovic, Kwasi Poku, Kenji Cabrera, and Belal Halbouni are all ruled out. Ralph Priso-Mbongue is a doubt.
Vancouver Whitecaps predicted lineup vs Real Salt Lake (4-2-3-1): Takaoka; Johnson, Blackmon, Laborda, Modesto; Cubas, Badwal; Caicedo, Gauld, Sabaly; White.
Real Salt Lake vs Vancouver Whitecaps Prediction
- Pick: Vancouver Whitecaps to win or draw
- Odds: -357 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Real Salt Lake 1-2 Vancouver Whitecaps
We expect Vancouver to win or draw. Their away form has been excellent this season, with just two losses in 10 matches. The gulf between the sides is clear in the MLS table.
Overall, the Whitecaps also hold an advantage over Salt Lake, having avoided defeat against them in 21 of their last 36 meetings. America First Field has not been a fortress for the Claret and Cobalt: they have failed to win five of their 12 games here.
Real Salt Lake vs Vancouver Whitecaps Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total over 2.5 goals
- Odds: -223 (20Bet)
This clash could produce at least three goals. That line has hit in five of the last six meetings between these teams at this venue.
Salt Lake’s home record is a good indicator: they have scored 24 goals in 12 home matches, averaging two per game. Vancouver, meanwhile, have found the back of the net on 18 occasions in 10 away outings this season.
The Claret and Cobalt will rely on Sergi Solans, who has scored nine goals, while Brian White, who has recorded 17 goal contributions, will be the target man for the Canadian club.
