Prediction: 2-0
New England Revolution
Real Salt Lake will try to recover from a 2-0 loss to San Jose Earthquakes when they take on New England Revolution in an eagerly-awaited MLS game. The Royals are eyeing their ninth home win of the season and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s clash. Pablo Ruiz and Kevin Bonilla should be the only absentees in the home team.
The Revs, on the other hand, continue with their old habit of producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels. Considering that New England have already suffered seven defeats on the road this term, home win should be considered. Brandon Bye is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 5-0 crushing of Montreal, while both Tomas Chancalay and Nacho Gil continue to miss out with injuries. There are no suspended players in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Real Salt Lake):
Real Salt Lake joined Major League Soccer in 2005 as an expansion team of the league and four years later they won their first MLS Cup. The Royals faced star-studded Los Angeles Galaxy in the title game at Qwest Field in Seattle and Jason Kreis’ troops defeated David Beckham and Co. on penalties.
In 2013 Real Salt Lake made it to the MLS Cup final for the second time in the club’s history, but they were beaten by Sporting Kansas City on penalties this time out. The Royals participated in the CONCACAF Champions League final in 2011 as well, but Monterrey of Mexico eventually won the title. Real Salt Lake footballers wear red shirts and blue shorts when playing at home, while the colour of their away kit is white.
The likes of Clint Mathis, Jeff Cunningham and Eddie Pope are some of the notable footballers who played for the club in the past. Jeff Cunningham scored 19 goals in 32 appearances in the league for the Royals.
