Real Salt Lake team news and form: Mastroeni not troubled by injuries
Sure, right-back Kevin Bonilla and midfielder Pablo Ruiz are injured, but coach Mastroeni has plenty of top-class performers to swap them with. For example, he could go for Braian Ojeda at the center of the pitch.
Predicted lineup: MacMath (GK), Brody, Vera, Glad, Quinton, Eneli, Ojeda, Crooks, Luna, Marczuk & Arango

Minnesota United team news and form: Eric Ramsay to count on the best
The good news in front of coach Ramsay is that he will be able to count on Hugo Bacharach. The defender served his two-game ban and will be available to his manager on the 3rd of October. However, we doubt the defender will be able to keep Real Salt Lake City’s strikers away from St. Clair.
Predicted lineup: St. Clair (GK), Harvey, Boxall, Diaz, Rosales, Dotson, Lod, Trapp, Hlongwane, Yeboah & Pereyra

Player to watch: Cristian Arango
At one point, Arango of Real Salt Lake City was on the top of the goalscoring charts in Major League Soccer. However, Mastroeni’s weapon hasn’t been as sharp as he was at the start of the campaign.
Arango has 17 goals in his name and will undoubtedly be looking to catch up with DC United’s Christian Benteke.

Second player to watch: Diego Luna
Midfielder Luna is just as important for Real Salt Lake City as Arango is. Luna is the leading assists-maker for his team this season, with eight assists to his name. Will he be able to prove our Real Salt Lake vs Minnesota United predictions correct? Only time will tell.
