After a jaw-dropping penalty shootout in the previous encounter, the action returns to Houston Dynamo's backyard as they host Real Salt Lake with both teams looking to turn the MLS tie in their favour.
On the back of crucial 2-1 victory in their home, Houston Dynamo were touted to make it through to the next round with another win. But a heartbreak during the penalty shootout saw the game go into the third tie. While Salt Lake salvaged themselves some hope the reigning US Open Cup champions will look to march through to the next round with a scinitllating victory as they play in front of their faithful once again.
Despite Amine Bassi's opening strike in the second tie, Real Salt Lake didn't lose hope as Jefferson Savarino equalised the score in the second-half. And with all five of Salt Lake's penalty taker finding the back of the net, Saturday's visitors found themselves new hope. The visitors would have massive confidence entering the contest and could turn the tie in their favour having produced a magnificent comeback last time out.
