Considering the injury concerns of both the Seattle Sounders and Real Salt Lake, Saturday's lineups are about as close to first-choice as you can reasonably expect. RSL is without full back Chris Wingert, who is nursing a broken wrist, but everyone in their starting lineup has started at least nine times. Everyone of the Sounders starters has at least eight starts.
