Real Salt Lake vs Vancouver Whitecaps Preview and Team News
Real Salt Lake Team News
Real Salt Lake take on Vancouver Whitecaps in the 15th round of the ongoing Major League Soccer on Saturday. The home team come into this game on the back of a disappointing, narrow 0-1 loss to Colorado Rapids, and will aim to overturn this as soon as possible.
A slow start to the game cost them deeply in this game, and the legion of fans who are expected to descend upon the America First Field in this game will hope that their team does not make such errors again.
They have won just one out of their last five outings, and this does not make for good reading for their supporters.

Currently, Salt Lake are ranked 12th in the league table with just 14 points inside their bag, and will nurture hopes of moving into the top ten of the standings, if only to prepare better for their next campaign. In this game, however, Salt Lake will have to make do without the services of Javain Brown, who has sustained a knee injury.
Along with Brown, Kobi Henry will also not be available due to a strained hamstring. Nelson Palacio and Zac MacMath have sustained leg and shoulder injuries, respectively, which deem them unavailable for selection in this fixture.
Real Salt Lake predicted lineup vs Vancouver Whitecaps (4-2-3-1): R. Cabral; Glad, Hidalgo, Junqua, Katranis; Eneli, Ojeda; Ruiz, Luna, Goncalves; Piol.
Vancouver Whitecaps Team News
Vancouver Whitecaps, who currently sit on top of the MLS table with 28 points, have little to worry about in this fixture against Real Salt Lake. They are clearly the better side, on paper and with regards to form. They come into this game unbeaten in their last five matches in the MLS, and this in itself is a big booster of confidence and motivation.
Although their last two MLS games, against Austin and Los Angeles, ended as drawn encounters, the Whitecaps won their previous three. Their defensive unit, however, could do with a bit of a brush-up as they have kept clean sheets in only one out of these last five MLS outings.

The Whitecaps are ranked 2nd away from home this season and have scored ten goals in their last five MLS matches. What helps their cause is that they have just two injuries ahead of this encounter with Real Salt Lake – Daniel Rios and Ryan Gauld, who have been ruled out with a foot and knee injury, respectively.
The Whitecaps are known to be aggressive in the final third. Their wingers often change their positions to move into spots that can better accommodate their chances of winning a perfectly weighted pass from midfield.
Vancouver Whitecaps predicted lineup vs Real Salt Lake (4-3-3): Takaoka; Ocampo, Blackmon, Veselinovic, Johnson; Berhalter, Cubas, Ngando; Ahmed, White, Nelson.
Real Salt Lake vs Vancouver Whitecaps Prediction
- Pick: Vancouver Whitecaps to win or draw
- Odds: -200 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Real Salt Lake 1-2 Vancouver Whitecaps
Vancouver Whitecaps have an advantage over Real Salt Lake as they are in good form and are also ranked first in the league table. We expect them to either win or draw this game – in essence, end the evening unbeaten against Salt Lake.
There have been a total of 34 games recorded between these teams in the past, out of which the Whitecaps have won or drawn 19. Salt Lake were beaten 1-2 by the Whitecaps when the teams last met in May this year, and the same will be expected in this encounter.
Real Salt Lake vs Vancouver Whitecaps Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both teams to score
- Odds: -175 (20Bet)
We expect both these teams to get onto the scoresheet by the end of the evening, since this is what happened in their last eight encounters with each other as well. Most importantly, both Salt Lake and the Whitecaps possess players who are known to be experimental in front of goal from wide distances as well, and this is known to threaten opposition defences a lot.
The Whitecaps, however, have not kept a clean sheet on more than one occasion in their last five MLS games, and this game is not expected to change that either. They will have an upper hand over the home team in this match, but fans can expect to see some goals from both clubs.
