Real Salt Lake vs Minnesota United Predictions

• Real Salt Lake have drawn their last two MLS matches.
• Four of the past seven meetings between these two clubs have finished level.
• At least three goals have been scored in four of the past five RSL matches and both of Minnesota’s away games this season.

Loons look ready to share goals out in Salt Lake

Real Salt Lake can enhance their chances of returning to the playoff places with a win over a Minnesota United side currently languishing at the wrong end of the Western Conference at Rio Tinto Stadium.

This season, Real Salt Lake could have been renamed the Rubio Rubin show for all the attention the former US national team star has received.

The 25-year-old has contributed four goals and two assists as his team have threatened to outperform last season’s 11^th place conference finish by some distance.

Rubin has flourished in a framework that has produced more fluidity and off-the-cuff inspiration than last season’s stagnant system.

It is also reaping earlier returns with the team scoring over 60 per cent of their goals in the first half this year compared to less than a quarter last season.

Minnesota United have lost on their travels both times so far in 2021, but confidence will be returning after the Loons recorded consecutive home wins.

Adrian Heath prescribed shooting practice after learning 20 of his side’s 27 efforts on goal against Dallas were off target, albeit they grabbed a 90^th minute winner from a corner.

The Loons boss has also suggested now could be the time to involve forwards Adrien Hunou and Franco Fragapane, who are yet to see any minutes.

The home side look too short a price and Minnesota remain unconvincing on their travels so we will extract our value from the goal markets, preferring Over 2.5 Goals here.

That looks to have a good chance of landing if the Loons’ recent awayday scorelines and RSL’s results since late April are anything to go by.
