Shorthanded Real Salt Lake Look to Rebound Against FC Dallas Amid Playoff Push

Real Salt Lake will be without several key players when they host FC Dallas on Saturday night in a crucial Western Conference match.

RSL is currently in seventh place in the standings, just one point ahead of FC Dallas. A win would move RSL into sixth place and strengthen their playoff position. However, RSL will be without several key players, including midfielder Albert Rusnák and defender Justen Glad, who are both suspended.

RSL has been in poor form lately, losing their last two matches. They will need to find a way to turn things around against a tough FC Dallas team. FC Dallas is currently in eighth place in the standings, just two points behind RSL. They have won their last two matches and will be looking to make it three in a row against RSL.

Can RSL overcome their injuries and poor form to beat FC Dallas and strengthen their playoff position?

RSL will need to find a way to replace the production of Rusnák and Glad. Rusnák is RSL's leading scorer with 10 goals, and Glad is one of the team's best defenders. RSL will also need to find a way to improve their form. They have lost their last two matches and have not won in their last five.

FC Dallas is a tough opponent, but RSL has a good chance to win if they can play to their potential. RSL has a strong home record this season, and they will be looking to make the most of their home-field advantage.
