Real Salt Lake will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 4 points behind Atlanta United.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

This pitch has grass, which is not Atlanta United's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass Atlanta United have performed like this: Played 32 matches resulting in 15 wins, 5 draws and 12 defeats with the goal stats 49-43 (scored/conceded). Atlanta United have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
