We said: Sporting Kansas City 0-1 Real Salt Lake

 Sporting Kansas City have improved massively since their very poor start to the season, but they have started to return to the mean a little in recent weeks, picking up just one win in their last five games. With Real Salt Lake in excellent form, having won five of their last seven league games, we expect them to emerge as narrow victors, continuing their upward trajectory in the league table.
