Today’s game between Real Salt Lake and New England Revolution will kick off at Sep 26, 2026, 9:30 PM.
Real Salt Lake vs New England Revolution is available to watch live on Apple TV, which holds exclusive streaming rights to every MLS regular-season match, playoff game, and Leagues Cup fixture. The match is included as part of a standard Apple TV subscription.
Real Salt Lake host New England Revolution at America First Field in Salt Lake City in a Major League Soccer fixture that finds both clubs at very different points in their seasons.
Pablo Mastroeni’s side are in desperate need of a result. RSL have lost five straight MLS matches and sit thirteenth in the Western Conference, with their postseason hopes fading fast as the regular season nears its end.
New England arrive in strong form. Marko Mitrovic’s side have won four of their last five MLS outings, including a 4-2 victory over Orlando City in their most recent match, and currently occupy second place in the Eastern Conference.
The Revolution have shown they can win away from home, picking up road victories at Chicago Fire FC and New York City FC in recent weeks. That travel record makes them a genuine threat even on the road.
For Real Salt Lake, this is a fixture they cannot afford to lose at home. A defeat to a side pushing for a top-two seed in the East would deepen the pressure on Mastroeni and leave RSL with little room to manoeuvre.
