Well as soon as the matches ended on Tuesday night we knew what the first set of group stage matches would be for Real Salt Lake:
Wednesday, August 18th
Arabe Unido at Real Salt Lake- 8pm
Wednesday, August 25th
Real Salt Lake at Cruz Azul
Well now we know the rest of the match dates for RSL:
Wednesday, September 15
Toronto FC at Real Salt Lake - 8pm
Wednesday, September 22
Real Salt Lake at Arabe Unido (PAN)
Tuesday, September 28
Real Salt Lake at Toronto
Tuesday, October 19

I know that some of you out there are not real excited for these matches, but for me they are some of the biggest matches RSL will play before the playoffs. Getting out of the group stage would be a huge accomplishment for Real Salt Lake in their first CCL, but I think RSL has what it takes to make a real run at winning this thing. The reason is the huge advantage that we the fans give them when they are playing at Rio Tinto Stadium, so if you have season tickets show up, if you don't have tickets get some cause these should be fun matches.
