Prediction: 3-1
Real Salt Lake
Vancouver Whitecaps welcome Real Salt at their BC Place in one of the three Monday fixtures. The Canadian outfit have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Austin and Los Angeles FC, and, no doubt, the back-to-back wins gave them a confidence boost. Scotland midfielder Ryan Gauld, who found the net at the weekend, is pushing for a start, all Caio Alexandre, Cavallini, Godoy, and Gutierrez are likely to miss the game through injuries.
The Royals, on the other hand, continue to struggle on the travels, and given their three-game losing run on the road, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the Canadians. All Brody, Farnsworth, and Ochoa have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the visiting team, and the trio is unlikely to feature in Monday’s showdown.
