Updated October 24, 2026: Real Salt Lake is scheduled to host St. Louis CITY SC in the 2026 MLS regular season on Saturday, October 24, at America First Field in Sandy, Utah.

When is Real Salt Lake vs. St. Louis CITY SC?
Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. in Sandy, Utah. The local time zone is Mountain Daylight Time (MDT, UTC−06:00), making the equivalent kickoff Sunday, October 25, at 01:30 UTC. The UTC date is one day later because the Sandy clock is six hours behind UTC at kickoff.
Real Salt Lake’s matchday guide gives the start as “7:30 p.m. MT,” while St. Louis CITY SC’s preview lists 8:30 p.m. CT. Those are the same moment: on October 24, St. Louis is observing Central Daylight Time (CDT, UTC−05:00). The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s 2026 daylight-saving calendar says daylight time ends November 1, so October 24 in Sandy uses MDT rather than Mountain Standard Time. International schedules should show the UTC date of October 25; Utah listings show October 24.

Where is the match being played?
The game is at America First Field, 9256 South State Street, Sandy, Utah 84070. The stadium is south of Salt Lake City and is Real Salt Lake’s home venue. The club’s parking and directions page says public street parking is allowed only in designated areas. Nearby neighborhoods may be posted as no-parking zones on event days without a Sandy City permit, so check the current map and follow event-day signs before parking.
RSL’s single-game ticket page links to the official SeatGeek purchase flow for this fixture. The club’s ticket FAQs say tickets are delivered electronically as mobile tickets and displayed from the SeatGeek app for entry. Inventory and entry guidance can change, so use the club’s current event page rather than relying on an old screenshot or listing.
How can you watch Real Salt Lake vs. St. Louis CITY SC?
Both clubs list Apple TV as the streaming service for this match. RSL’s matchday guide names Mike Watts and Marcelo Balboa for the English-language broadcast and Oscar Salazar for the Spanish-language call. The club’s preview also lists its KSL Radio team and the Spanish-language broadcast on KBMG Latino 106.3 FM.
St. Louis CITY SC’s official preview lists KYKY Y98.1 FM for English-language radio and KXOK 102.9 FM for Spanish-language radio. The clubs’ match previews are the best source to recheck if a local audio listing or broadcast detail changes before kickoff. If you plan to attend, RSL labels the fixture “Halloween Night” and advertises a pregame costume contest; check the event listing for any current venue instructions.

St. Louis CITY SC, out: Roman Bürki (concussion protocol), Alex Matan (lower leg), and Célio Pompeu (knee).
“Questionable” is the category used in the league report; it is not confirmation that a player will be available. The status list is not the starting lineup, and clubs may issue later updates. Check the league report and the teams’ official channels for any change and for confirmed starters close to kickoff.
The current MLS Notice of Suspension is dated October 20. It lists suspension notices for players from other clubs for October 24 fixtures, but does not name a Real Salt Lake or St. Louis player for this match. That is the published suspension information as of the notice date; the disciplinary page is the place to verify any later update.
What is at stake in the Western Conference?
RSL’s October 23 match preview described this as a critical home game during its late push for a Western Conference playoff place. In the standings snapshot included in that preview, Real Salt Lake had 36 points and sat 10th in the West, three points behind ninth-place Colorado, with four regular-season matches remaining. The club said it likely needed at least three wins from those final four games to extend its postseason qualification streak. Treat those figures as the club’s pre-match snapshot; other results can affect the table.
St. Louis entered the preview in second place in the West with 51 points. The visitors also arrived after a major cup result: CITY SC’s October 21 U.S. Open Cup final against Columbus Crew finished 0–0 after regulation and extra time, and St. Louis won the shootout 5–3. The club described that as its first trophy and said the victory secured a place in the 2027 Concacaf Champions Cup. The league match in Sandy therefore follows a midweek cup final for the visitors.
Real Salt Lake’s most recent league result before this fixture was a 3–1 road win over Sporting Kansas City on October 17. RSL’s recap credits Morgan Guilavogui with two goals and Sergi Solans with the other goal; Noel Caliskan assisted both of Guilavogui’s finishes. That win ended the club’s 13-game road winless streak, according to RSL. Those are recent results, not a prediction about Saturday’s match.
How did the first 2026 meeting finish?
The teams drew 1–1 in St. Louis on August 1, according to Real Salt Lake’s match recap. That result supplies a useful season-to-date reference, but it does not determine the rematch: this game is at RSL’s home ground and comes late in the regular season, with the clubs pursuing different positions in the Western Conference.
What should fans check before kickoff?
For the confirmed venue, 7:30 p.m. Sandy kickoff, Apple TV listing, announcers, and Halloween Night details, consult RSL’s October 24 matchday guide and match preview. For St. Louis radio and the visitors’ perspective, see the CITY SC match preview. For any late injury or discipline change, check MLS’s status and disciplinary reports before traveling or starting a stream. Remember the date distinction: the match begins October 24 in Sandy and St. Louis, but October 25 in UTC.
