Preview

Real Salt Lake host St. Louis City in Major League Soccer on Saturday, October 24 at 8:30 p.m. ET. The model's likeliest result is a St. Louis City win, while the teams arrive after contrasting latest results: a 3-1 away win against Sporting Kansas City on October 17, and a 3-2 away defeat to Minnesota United FC on October 17.

At America First Field, Sandy, the model puts the visitors' win first in its outcome ordering. The recent results and the table provide further context for a fixture in which the model also projects goals for both sides.

What the model expects

The probabilities are estimates. The model gives Real Salt Lake 29.3%, a draw 27.6% and St. Louis City 43.1%; its ordering is a St. Louis City win (43.1%), then a Real Salt Lake win (29.3%), then a draw (27.6%).

Expected goals are 1.5 for Real Salt Lake and 1.6 for St. Louis City. The leading exact-score projections are 1-1 (12.2%), 1-2 (8.2%) and 2-1 (7.6%). The model's goals outlook is over 2.5 goals at 59%, against under 2.5 goals at 41%. It gives both teams scoring 61.3%, while at least one side fails to score 38.7%.

The projected scores include both a draw and wins for either side. The expected-goals figures are close, while the model's outcome ordering gives St. Louis City the leading result. Its goals and scoring probabilities point to a match in which goals from both teams are a notable possibility, rather than making any one exact score a certainty.

Real Salt Lake sit 10th in Western Conference with 36 points from 30 games; St. Louis City sit 2nd in Western Conference with 51 points from 30 games. In the table, St. Louis City sit above Real Salt Lake. The standings and the model's outcome ordering both put St. Louis City in focus, while the teams' latest results offer a contrast heading into the match.

Team news

Real Salt Lake's reported absentees and doubts are G. Dillon (doubtful, foot injury), L. De Fougerolles (doubtful, injury), D. Luna (knee injury), J. Glad (groin injury), L. Engel (hamstring injury) and E. Eneli (knee injury). St. Louis City's are C. Wallem (doubtful, injury), Celio Pompeu (knee injury), K. Hiebert (hip injury), D. Downs (international duty), B. McSorley (lacking match fitness) and P. Ault (ankle injury). Line-ups are not announced yet, so the starting selections remain unconfirmed.

Head to head

Across the last 6 meetings, Real Salt Lake won 3, St. Louis City won 0 and 3 were drawn. The most recent meeting was St. Louis City 1-1 Real Salt Lake (August 2026). That meeting ended level, while the wider record includes wins for Real Salt Lake and draws; St. Louis City have not won across this span.

What to watch

Real Salt Lake's latest win and St. Louis City's latest defeat frame a contrast in immediate results, but the model's likeliest result is a St. Louis City win. The model projects goals for both sides, with 1-1 its leading exact-score outcome. Its broader goals outlook gives over 2.5 goals at 59%, and it assigns 61.3% to both teams scoring. Whether the match follows the level score projection or produces a win for either side is the central question.
