We say: Austin FC 2-0 Real Salt Lake

 Over the course of the season, Austin were what RSL became in the postseason in 2021, an underdog story who surprised everyone time and again. Unfortunately for Salt Lake, that was then and this is now, and the bottom line is that we do not believe the visitors have the stamina or quality to compete with a side who have as many weapons as the Verde and Black, not to mention that kind of intense heat which we are likely to see, which should favour the home team.
