Real Salt Lake team news and form: Shell-shocked Mastroeni must react
Absolutely no one expected Real Salt Lake City to lose the game against San Jose Earthquakes last week. After all, the Quakes are among the worst teams in the league this season. However, after 90 minutes of soccer, the result on the scoreboard at America First Field was 0-2 in favor of the visitors.

New England team news and form: New England on the rise
After the horrendous start to the season, New England did manage to climb the ladder in the Eastern Conference. Sure, there’s still a lot of work to do in order for coach Caleb Porter’s boys to take part in the final stage of the competition, but it was still nice to see the team show spirit.

Player to watch: Cristian Arango
As we mentioned earlier in our Real Salt Lake vs New England predictions, Arango is topping the goalscoring charts in MLS. However, he’s not the only one with 17 goals. Christian Benteke of DC United also bagged 17. If the Colombian scorer wants to keep 1st place, he’d have to be at his lethal best versus lackluster New England.
Second player to watch: Giacomo Vrioni
Vrioni is the top finisher for the visitors. He slid it past the goalkeepers on nine occasions and is undoubtedly eager to prove he is just as good of a finisher as Arango.
