Lowly Sporting KC and Real Salt Lake lock horns at Children's Mercy Park on Saturday evening, with both sides looking to make it back to back victories. KC comes into the game following an incredible 2-1 victory over Charlotte. Trialing 1-0 deep into injury time, KC looked to be heading for a third successive defeat. However, Mason Toye drew them level, before Dejan Joveljić completed the remarkable turnaround with a 96th minute winner.
Meanwhile, Real eased to a comfortable 2-0 victory over DC United in their last game, thanks to goals from Johnny Russell and Zavier Gozo. Despite that victory, Pablo Mastroeni's side are still seven points outside of the MLS Western Conference play off places, so they will need to put together an extremely strong second half of the season if they are to gatecrash the postseason.

Our Sporting Kansas City vs Real Salt Lake Prediction
It's fair to say that this is NOT one of the most eagerly anticipated MLS contests of the week, however, we have found some excellent value in the betting markets for the game. Both KC and Real have struggled mightily to keep clean sheets so far this season, so we think this will be a game featuring plenty of goalmouth action. It is also worth noting that the two teams are separated by just one point in the Western Conference standings, so they are clearly very evenly matched. As such, our prediction for Sporting Kansas City vs Real Salt Lake is: Draw and both teams to score.
