Western Conference powerhouse Real Salt Lake, unbeaten in their last six games, are led by U.S. Men's National Team midfielder Kyle Beckerman. FC Dallas, third in the Western Conference, come into the Contest off of a 5-0 away win against the San Jose Earthquakes this past Saturday, and feature a rising star in rookie Tesho Akindele.

COMMENTATORS: NBC Sports Group's lead play-by-play announcer John Strong calls FC Dallas vs Real Salt Lake and will be joined by joined by Bolton Wanderers (U.K.'s Football League Championship) midfielder Stuart Holden and host Russ Thaler.

Strong on FC Dallas vs Real Salt Lake: "This is a fun-looking clash at the top of the Western Conference standings. Real Salt Lake showed last Saturday that they deserve to be in first, as returning World Cup star Kyle Beckerman once again led the charge. FC Dallas doesn't get much of the spotlight, but new coach Oscar Pareja has led them on a remarkable charge this summer, and Tesho Akindele has bolstered his Rookie of the Year candidacy with a hat trick in their last game."
