Why Bet on Real Salt Lake?

Real Salt Lake is living one of its best seasons, being a very regular team in its results and very balanced in terms of attack and defense. However, last matchday, they drew 1-1 with Seattle Sounders. Although Carlos Andrés Gómez gave them the lead in the 4th minute, the home team equalized in the 68th minute with Albert Rusnák. 

With this unit, the team has 30 points with 16 games from eight wins, six draws, and only two defeats. They are unbeaten in the last 12 matches with seven victories. Real Salt Lake’s lead in the West is two points over LA Galaxy, and it is the third-best team in MLS, with four points less than Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami. 

From this club, we must also highlight Cristian Arango, who is one of the two players with the most goals in the league, with 13 in total. The Colombian has also provided four assists. 

The casualties are Kevin Bonilla, Pablo Ruiz, Erik Holt, and Marcelo Silva. 

Why Bet on Austin?

Austin is performing well this season and looks to be an interesting opponent in the Playoffs, as long as they keep up their performance. However, last game, they lost 2-0 at home to Portland Timbers, with goals from Evander and Jonathan Rodríguez.

The Texan team is in fifth place with 23 points and has six wins, five draws, and five defeats. They have 20 goals for and 20 against. In the last ten matches, they have three defeats and two draws. Moreover, they have only won twice in their previous six outings. 

Sebastián Driussi continues to be the best scorer and player on the team, with five goals and one assist. But just as the Argentinean excels in attack, the defense has not been at the same level. 

Jon Gallagher is the only doubt for this match.
