Atlanta United will look to recover from a 2-0 loss to San Jose Earthquakes when they face Real Salt Lake on Sunday morning. As the Royals are not regarded as good travellers, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Five Stripes are determined to record their first win of the new MLS season, but they will have to do it without trio Reilly – Fortune – Chong-Qui. Haiti forward Fafa Picault is a major doubt. As Atlanta United were scoring 1.50 goals per home game last season, home win should definitely be considered.
Real Salt Lake, on the other hand, struggle on the travels, with the team conceding 2.20 goals per away game. As the likes of Eneli, Henry, Luna, Olatundji, and Yedlin miss out with injuries for the Royals, we are not tempted to place our bets on the visiting team. Real Salt Lake had an expected goals of 1.68 in a 2-1 win over Seattle Sounders, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Atlanta United.
Atlanta are a real force to be reckoned with at home and with Real Salt Lake struggling on the travels, our prediction firmly points toward Home Win. Additionally, Over 2.5 goals (80% H2H) and BTTS (80%) bets seem appealing.
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 8 March 2026 at 00:30.
