Real Salt Lake v New York City: how it went

How it turned out

We projected about 2.7 goals and the game finished with 2.

What we said beforehand

We expect about 1.4 goals from Real Salt Lake and 1.3 from New York City, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.7 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Real Salt Lake to score 2 or fewer. This is about Real Salt Lake's goals alone, not the game's total. We make them around 1.4 on the day, and the bet wants them to 2 or fewer, which we make about 77%.

We put the chance of that landing at about 77 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.34, which works out at about 75 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
