Real Salt Lake has a real opportunity in front of it on Sunday when it hosts Sporting Kansas City. A win would clinch a playoff spot for the eighth time in the last nine seasons. And while there are other scenarios that would see RSL punch its ticket to the postseason this weekend, Jeff Cassar and his side would just as soon take care of their own business in the regular season home finale than rely on results from other clubs around the league.
Cassar and RSL don’t want just to make it to the postseason, but also build momentum into the playoffs after going winless in the last five matches at 0-2-3.
