As Real Salt Lake faces off against the Colorado Rapids this weekend, let's talk about why RSL can bank on three points against their Rocky Mountain rivals.
Last week’s performance
The bottom line from RSL’s win over Sporting Kansas City last week is that they can win games even without a full preferred starting lineup. With Jamison Olave, Burrito Martinez, Kyle Beckerman, Javier Morales, and Nick Rimando all absent from the starting eleven, our youth-energized team handed SKC their first loss of the season with a 2-1 win on the road.
For the upcoming match at home against the Rapids, we should see a nearly full-strength squad.
