Football Bet of the Day: Goals to dry up in Salt Lake

"Salt Lake's last four MLS home games have all stayed Under 2.5 Goals"

Back Under 2.5 Goals @ 1.84/5 in Real Salt Lake v Colorado

When it comes to goals, Colorado Rapids have been on a go-slow recently, says Tobias Gourlay

Real Salt Lake v Colorado
Sunday 22:00

Sporting Kansas 1 Seattle 0 in the MLS last night. Though it doesn't seem that Sporting to beat up on your guests like that - and indeed on us.

We're giving America chance to atone tonight. Since 2010 five of Real Salt Lake's seven meetings with Colorado Rapids in Salt Lake have been low scorers.

More recently, Salt Lake's last four MLS home games have all stayed Under 2.5 Goals (it's 6/8 if you want to go back into the end of last season) with the hosts scoring only three times across the four matches.

Set aside an outlying 4-0 win in Dallas and Colorado have hit the back of the net just twice in five other away games this term. All five of those matches have ended with Under 2.5 Goals.
