THE PREDICTION

Marc Dos Santos’ Vancouver Whitecaps come into this on the back of a 4-3 defeat to Pacific in the preliminary round of the Canadian Championship last midweek in a game in which new signing Ryan Gauld managed a brace. That defeat followed eight matches without a defeat in the league and back-to-back wins before this match. They come up against a Real Salt Lake side that sit tucked just inside the playoffs of the Western Conference and their poor away form has caused that uncertain league position. The visitors have won just two of their last nine matches. Vancouver are 22nd in the home form table, though, so a draw looks the likely result for this one.
