Prediction
This should be a competitive matchup between two teams with similar records. New England has been playing well lately, but Real Salt Lake has been on a roll with two consecutive wins. I think Real Salt Lake's offense, led by Damir Kreilach, will be too much for the Revolution's defense to handle. Real Salt Lake wins 2-1.
