Match Preview

Real Salt Lake host New York City FC at America First Field in a Major League Soccer elimination phase contest on September 13, 2026.

Real Salt Lake have enjoyed a strong run at home, winning 64 percent of their home matches in the league. New York City FC approach this fixture having lost 3 out of their last 6 Major League Soccer games.

Head to head history shows Real Salt Lake with 4 wins from their past 7 encounters against New York City FC.

Prediction: Real Salt Lake to win by 2-1.

Real Salt Lake's miserable run of form continued in midweek, losing 2-1 on the road against Houston Dynamo FC after Mateusz Bogusz scored with three minutes remaining. The hosts are now winless in 10 MLS games and have picked up just one point from the last 15 available.

New York City FC were heading for a respectable point at home against New England Revolution in midweek until Daniel Gazdag popped up with a 93rd-minute winner. Sunday's visitors are now winless in their last seven MLS matches ahead of the trip to America First Field.
