Real Salt LakevsLAFC
RSL 1/LAFC 3
The preview
Real Salt Lake heads into BMO Stadium sitting pretty at 8-2-4, actually a shade better on paper than the hosts LAFC at 7-3-5, but Vegas still likes LAFC at home, favoring them at -145 with the total set at 3.5 goals. This is shaping up as a proper Western Conference statement game, and if LAFC's front line finds the net early expect RSL to sit back and try to nick one on the counter.
Bold prediction: LAFC edges it 2-1 in a game that's tighter than the odds suggest, with a late stoppage-time chance either team could have buried.
