The MLS showdown between Real Salt Lake and D.C. United takes place on Sunday, June 15, 2025, at America First Field in Salt Lake City. Fans can expect an exciting clash as both sides look to strengthen their positions in the league standings.
Kick-off is set for 03:30 CEST across Italy, Germany, France, and Spain, while viewers in the UK can tune in at 02:30 BST. Make sure to set your alarms—this one promises drama right from the first whistle!
How are both teams coming into this?
D.C. United are desperate to bounce back after a crushing 7-1 loss to Chicago Fire last weekend. That heavy defeat exposed defensive frailties and will have dented morale in the squad. On the road in Colorado, United must shore up at the back and find some resilience if they are to avoid another drubbing.
Real Salt Lake, meanwhile, have been inconsistent but remain dangerous at home. Their recent matches at America First Field have shown moments of real quality in midfield control and chance creation. With the home crowd behind them, RSL will fancy their chances of maintaining momentum against a wounded United side.
Our forecast
We expect Real Salt Lake to dominate possession early on, using their midfield chemistry to probe a nervy D.C. United defence. The visitors looked shaky in their last outing, and RSL should exploit those vulnerabilities with quick transitions and set-piece opportunities.
While D.C. United could rally in search of pride, our money is on a home victory. A straight win bet on Real Salt Lake seems the safest play, with a predicted scoreline of 2-0 or 2-1 in favor of the hosts.
