Real Salt Lake vs Inter Miami: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Utah managed to finish ninth in the West last season, accumulating the same 41 points as two other rivals. However, they lost the wildcard to Portland Timbers. This time around, they started strongly with several wins, despite opening the season with a loss to Vancouver. Notably, they have recently defeated both Seattle and San Diego in their latest matches.
The young project from Florida won the MLS last season. But this year, their start has been less impressive, with frequent draws. This includes two draws with Nashville in the CONCACAF Champions Cup, which led to an early exit in March. After that, Mascherano left his coaching position, and the team managed to beat Colorado without him.
The hosts have started well: they score an average of 2.29 goals, though they also concede 1.43 per match. The reigning champion's numbers aren't as convincing so far: two goals scored per game, but 1.75 conceded.
