Real Salt Lake’s first opponent of the 2021 season at home has been set, and it’s a big one: Sporting Kansas City on May 1.
Oh, and their first opponent of the season, too — that’s Minnesota United on April 24, a team we really should have been better than for multiple years now, but we’ve somehow managed to screw that one up.
But that first game. That’s a doozy. RSL’s biggest rival — all stemming from actual games and not an MLS construct — will be the first opponent at whatever Rio Tinto Stadium is named at that point.
