Real Salt Lake City to Win
The visitors’ desire to show they are no pushovers and escape the dreadful 14th place might cause one or two ludicrous attacking attempts. And that’s all Real Salt Lake City really need.
The clash on the 9th of April will be the first-ever between the two teams and we’re sure that Pablo Mastroeni wouldn’t want to disappoint the fans at America First Field. Especially, after his team already got thrashed 4-0 twice this season.
Over 3.5 Goals
Perhaps a gamble to some degree, our professional Real Salt Lake City vs Charlotte prediction will be appreciated by the true fans of soccer. We anticipate at least four goals at America First Field on Sunday as both of Real Salt Lake City’s last two games ended with brutal 4-0 defeats.
Sure, Pablo Mastroeni’s boys didn’t have much of a contribution towards the final result as they didn’t score a single goal but their leaky defensive line will make Sunday’s game a glamorous event as Charlotte struggle to leap off the bottom of the table in the Eastern Conference.

Real Salt Lake City odds: +100 – 47.5%
Draw odds: +260 – 26.0%
Charlotte odds: +265 – 26.5%
Real Salt Lake City’s odds at +100 (47.5%) make them the expected winners while the new kid on the block, Charlotte, barely has a 26.5% chance of securing the three points. It’s embarrassing to see that even a draw at +260 (26.0%) has a higher chance of success than for Charlotte to win against Real Salt Lake City.
Real Salt Lake City vs Charlotte Lineups & Team News
Real Salt Lake City
Our top Real Salt Lake City vs Charlotte predictions are ever so slightly in favor of the home team as coach Pablo Mastroeni’s boys are one of the few teams without draws this season. Their 1-0-4 record is about to get improved on Sunday. After all, what are the chances Real Salt Lake City will get thrashed in a third back-to-back MLS game?
Predicted lineup – Beavers (GK), Brody, Vera, Glad, Eneli, Ruiz, Ojeda, Savarino, Kreilach, Gomez & Rubin
Charlotte
The 2-2 tie against Toronto on the 2nd of April should be considered a success in Charlotte’s camp. Coach Bob Bradley’s side could’ve easily taken the basket full of points for themselves as they had plenty of good goalscoring opportunities. However, a 70th-minute Kamil Jozwiak goal proved decisive as coach Christian Lattanzio’s boys earned a much-needed point.
Predicted lineup – Marks (GK), Afful, Tuiloma, Malanda, Lindsey, Vargas, Santos, Bronico, Jones, Jozwiak & Copetti
Starting Lineups

*Starting lineups are usually announced 1hr before the kick-off
Player to Watch: George Marks
Charlotte’s key goalkeeper is Kristijan Kahlina but he suffered a back injury a while ago and is unavailable to his coach. Option number two Pablo Sisniega is failing miserably every chance he gets so it’ll be up to George Marks to cause a dent in our Real Salt Lake City vs Charlotte predictions’ chance of becoming successful.
However, he didn’t exactly seem up to par on matchday six. Marks, 23, conceded twice versus Toronto last week and he’ll undoubtedly be the weak link in Charlotte’s chain against Real Salt Lake City.
