Game notes

RSL is on a six-game winless streak, but that comes on the heels of a five-game winning streak. ... The two center-mids, Beckerman and Morales, have not played a game together since April, Beckerman was suspended the final games whille with Morales returned from a major injury. ...RSL has actually fared better in a playoff series when it enters as the underdog and begins the opening leg at home.
