Claim Welcome Bonus🏠 Real Salt Lake: form and statistics
A growing urgency seems to be in development in the camps of Real Salt Lake. Sitting 11th in the Western Conference with only 4 wins in 12 matches (4W-1D-7L), more pressure weighs on a team failing to meet expectations. Their form—LLWLD—owes its consistency still to its search. They have lost three of their last five home games (WLLWL), with the America First Field not yet earning the title of a fortress. The latest fixture was a 1-1 tie against FC Dallas on May 10, in which Diego Luna put up an awe-inspiring solo effort for a goal, his fourth in as little as three matches and seventh for the season.
The statistics have said a lot against them: five games on end have seen Real Salt Lake conceding goals, with 4 out of 5 ending with both teams scoring (GG). They have, since the beginning, accounted for physical encounters and bordering on tactical from a card perspective, with 5 of their last 6 games seeing over 4.5 cards, and 7 of their last 8 dating under 10.5 corners (www.sofascore.com).
But there is some hope yet for Real Salt Lake. Signing 18-year-old forward Diego Rocio from Philadelphia Union, MVP of the 2024 Generation Adidas Cup, injects fresh, youthful firepower into the squad (www.MLSSoccer.com). If Real Salt Lake can find the right combustible mixture of youth and the form of Luna, there could yet be a spark for them.

✈️ Portland Timbers: form and statistics
Portland Timbers are flying high. Entering this weekend occupying the third spot in the Western Conference with a well-ago 6W-3D-3L record, they enjoy the momentum and depth. Their recent form-DWLWW-justifies the upward trend, and they also recently beat Tacoma Defiance 3-2 in the U.S. Open Cup (www.timbers.com).
Obliging their status of a very comfortable traveling team, the Timbers have won thrice and drawn once in five (DWWLW) away from home since the turn of the year, scoring in each game. The buzz is that they have scored first in five of their last six contests while finding themselves ahead during the break in four of five. There have also been more than 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six, with one goal for both sides in five of these (www.sofascore.com).
In the 1-0 triumph over Sporting Kansas City, Santiago Moreno scored with a brilliant bicycle kick that claimed AT&T Goal of the Week for Matchday 12 with a 44.2% fan vote (www.MLSSoccer.com). This kind of flair has become a staple in their attacking phase.
Despite the niggling injuries, the Timbers' attack led by Moreno, Mora, and Antony has been clicking brilliantly, while midfielders like Ayala and Ortiz have provided stability and control. All signals indicate a team hitting their peak.
