Real Salt Lake hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 21 points and a 9th position in the Major League Soccer table. Visiting Dallas holds 6th place with 24 pts.
The visiting Dallas played their last game only four days ago, a Major League Soccer match. That game was also an away game, at Nashville SC. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
It's quite the trip for Dallas when visiting Salt as the cities are 2100 kilometers apart.
