Sporting Kansas City

Sporting Kansas City is currently the worst team in the Western Conference. Over 14 matches, they have accumulated only 11 points – 2 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses. Recently, Sporting Kansas City has appeared utterly defeated in all aspects, and head coach Peter Vermes needs to urgently find a way to turn things around.

Interestingly, Sporting Kansas City started the season well, with 9 points from the first 6 matches and only 1 loss in that span. However, they approach the game against Vancouver on the back of a five-match losing streak. In their previous match, they suffered a 2-1 away defeat to Portland, conceding the decisive goal in the 79th minute.

Vancouver Whitecaps

After 14 matches, Vancouver has garnered 7 more points than Sporting Kansas City and sits in seventh place in the Western Conference. Last season, the Canadian team finished in sixth position, so there has been no significant regression for Vancouver.

The last match was a major disappointment for Vancouver fans. They hosted Inter Miami, which was without its three biggest stars: Messi, Suárez, and Busquets. However, this did not help Vancouver, as they lost 2-1. Over their last six matches, the Whitecaps have failed to secure a single win, collecting only three points.

Interesting facts and head-to-head history

• Last season, Sporting Kansas City defeated Vancouver 3-0 at home, while the teams drew 1-1 in Canada.
• In 27 historical encounters between these rivals, Sporting has won 14 times, while Vancouver has won only 8 times.

Sporting Kansas City vs Vancouver Whitecaps prediction

Vancouver is facing significant issues in attack but simultaneously concedes relatively few goals. Sporting Kansas City is in a similar situation. Therefore, my prediction for this match is under 2.5 goals.
