Week 26: A look ahead at Real Salt Lake
Our greatest foes come to town for the third stage of the Rocky Mountain Cup. The RMC is perhaps a still attainable goal, but much like the Rapids playoff chances, they are pretty slim. With a 4-goal deficit, we’re in for a steep uphill battle for the Cup, but I think that we are still capable of getting those precious three points out of this game.
The rivalry between RSL and the good guys is a long and complicated one. The competition started in 2005, and as of last year, the overall record is 9—4… and not in our favor. The last time we won was in 2015, which came down to goal differential. The last time we won flat out was in 2013.
