📊 Match recap and data context
Real Salt Lake lost 0-2 to New York City in MLS action. Our model favored a Salt Lake win at 47 percent probability; the pick missed. Salt Lake had won none of their last five matches, drawing once and losing four times, while City arrived in poor form themselves at one win, two draws and two losses over the same span. Both teams had shown attacking threat in recent fixtures, with Salt Lake posting 80 percent both-teams-to-score rate and City at 100 percent. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
