❶ Core Analysis
● Montreal (13th in the Eastern League / LLDWD)
Montreal tends to cover its somewhat insecure defense with offense. However, with Resiter being sent off in the last game, their attack has been compromised. Resiter can play both wing-back and forward, which is a significant blow for Montreal, which often uses a back-three formation. Although the local media in Canada reports an improvement in their ability to cover goals conceded, Real Salt Lake’s performance is not particularly affected by the environment, which is noteworthy.
- Absentees: Resiter (LWB / A-level), Martinez (FW / A-level), Vilsaint (FW / A-level), Opoku (FW / C-level), Lappalainen (FW / D-level), Toye (FW / B-level), Koccharo (FW / B-level), Jabang (CB / C-level) ➤ Total strength reduction: -15%
● Real Salt Lake (1st in the Western USA / WWDDW)
Real Salt Lake shows no inconsistency in their play. They tend to score many goals both at home and away, largely due to the outstanding performance of top scorer Arango. While their expected goals conceded do slightly increase during away games, they demonstrated their attacking prowess by scoring five goals against a conservatively playing Austin in the last match.
- Absentees: Ramirez (RW / B-level) ➤ Total strength reduction: -5%

➍ Game Outlook & Recommended Betting
Real Salt Lake is expected to dominate. While Montreal has a good ability to cover goals conceded at home, Real Salt Lake is not particularly affected by whether they play at home or away. The absence of Montreal's key attacking players is a critical factor. There's no reason Real Salt Lake should be at a disadvantage in an offensive battle.
