Real Salt Lake host the Houston Dynamo at America First Field on Wednesday, May 13, kicking off at 9:30 PM ET.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Dynamo arrive in Utah as one of the Western Conference’s form teams, winning four of their last five MLS games, including a 4-1 demolition of LAFC on May 10. RSL sit sixth in the West on 19 points; Houston are eighth in the West on 18. Follow the MLS hub<\/a> for all the latest updates.<\/p>\n

Houston have been remarkable in this run \u2014 Guilherme Augusto and Lawrence Ennali driving their attack with six and three goals, respectively. RSL have been inconsistent, alternating wins and losses in recent weeks, but Diego Luna continues to be key with four goals and an assist.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Real Salt Lake will need their own quality \u2014 Sergi Solans leads their attack with five goals and Luna contributes as a creative force from midfield. The MLS standings<\/a> show just one point separating these two sides, making the stakes for this game very real.<\/p>\n\n\n
