Real Salt Lake vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction & Betting Tips | 23/06/2024 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our prediction for this MLS match:

Real Salt Lake

Real Salt Lake

Los Angeles Galaxy

Los Angeles Galaxy

Buoyed by a 4-3 win over Sporting Kansas City, Real Salt Lake will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday morning. The Royals are undefeated in the previous 15 MLS games and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Carlos Andres Gomez, who scored a brace in the last league match, while Brayan Vera serves a one-game ban.

Los Angeles Galaxy, on the other hand, are eyeing their third consecutive win in the Major League Soccer. As the visitors have been scoring goals for fun of late, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. The likes of Jonathan Perez, Riqui Puig, and Gaston Brugman are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team.

Real Salt Lake

Real Salt Lake joined Major League Soccer in 2005 as an expansion team of the league and four years later they won their first MLS Cup. The Royals faced star-studded Los Angeles Galaxy in the title game at Qwest Field in Seattle and Jason Kreis’ troops defeated David Beckham and Co. on penalties.

In 2013 Real Salt Lake made it to the MLS Cup final for the second time in the club’s history, but they were beaten by Sporting Kansas City on penalties this time out. The Royals participated in the CONCACAF Champions League final in 2011 as well, but Monterrey of Mexico eventually won the title. Real Salt Lake footballers wear red shirts and blue shorts when playing at home, while the colour of their away kit is white.

The likes of Clint Mathis, Jeff Cunningham and Eddie Pope are some of the notable footballers who played for the club in the past. Jeff Cunningham scored 19 goals in 32 appearances in the league for the Royals.
