Real Salt Lake

Head-to-Head

Key Players
- Mikael Uhre has given the Union the spark of a player who can move the ball, make the runs, drive at defenders and finish the chances that are created by his team's high-pressing style.
- Aleksey Miranchuk has the type of craft between the lines that can unlock a low block and he's in a good spot to score here as well, but RSL's Sergi Solans is the main goal scorer for his team with 11 in 25 MLS 2026 appearances.
- He has scored two of RSL's last four goals in the last five games and is the most likely candidate to punish any lapses in the Union press.
- Diego Luna has been a useful connector, especially when RSL play with a player alongside him in a 4-2-3-1 system with wing backs that can overload wide areas when needed.
