Real Salt Lake is favored because they have more points this season, and are facing a Saint Louis team that has 7 losses in their 10 road games, but Real Salt Lake has just 3 wins in their 8 home games, so I see no value on either side. Both teams struggle offensively, scoring 1.95 goals per game combined, while allowing 2.92 goals per game combined. With the total set at 3, I certainly don’t expect 4 goals in this game, and we also get a push protection. Take the under 3 goals.
