Sporting Kansas City
Sporting Kansas City is one of the bottom teams in the Western Conference of MLS. Sporting KC currently sits in 12th place with 24 points, 9 points away from the playoff zone, making their chances of finishing in the top 9 very slim. However, Sporting KC has been in excellent form recently. In their last five matches, they have secured two wins and drew 1-1 against St. Louis in their previous MLS game.
In the Leagues Cup, Sporting Kansas City managed a 2-1 victory over Chicago Fire. Like Toluca, they are already assured a spot in the playoffs, but only a win will secure the top spot in their group.
