Real Salt Lake has a nice chance to pursue the top spot in the West, and make quite a surprise in the MLS caravan. They await one of the worst teams in the league this year, the San Jose Earthquakes, who are hammered to the bottom of the conference standings.
Before Betting on Real Salt Lake vs. San Jose Earthquakes
RSL is third in the West, five points fewer than Galaxy, but with a game in hand and the LA FC between them. The Leagues Cup pause came at the best possible moment for the team from Colorado, which was declining in form before the pause, not winning in three consecutive events.
RSL beat Atlans in the Leagues Cup group stage but lost to Houston Dynamo 3-0, which eliminated them from further competition. We can freely say that RSL didn’t lament over that too much.
San Jose has the worst offense and defense in the entire Western Conference, and it’s no wonder they sit last. In 25 matches, this team won only four, had two ties, and suffered a horrifying 19 losses.
The Quakes reached the Round of 16 in the Leagues Cup, where LA FC presented too big of a challenge for them, 1-4. Previously, they beat Chivas after penalties, lost to LA Galaxy, 1-2, and then eliminated Necaxa in the first knockout round, 5-0. That was by far the best game San Jose played this year.
