Austin is ranked 11th out of 13 teams in the Western Conference. It is not surprising because the team gained their last victory in early May, when they beat Minnesota United, which is the same loser at the start of the season (0-1). After the victory over the Loons, Austin played four matches and could not win in any of them. Moreover, the team failed to score in three out of four games. On average, Austin players have scored 0.4 goals per match in the last five rounds.
Sporting Kansas City is in great shape. The Wizards have won four of their last five matches. They also scored more than two goals in four of them. In the upcoming game, the task of scoring goals will also be submitted to the hosts. The visitors have scored 0.4 goals on average in the last five games. Sporting Kansas City scores three goals in three matches in a row, but there is a possibility that sooner or later such an excellent streak of the team will be interrupted. Beyond that, Austin is unlikely to help with high production, given the statistics of recent matches. Moreover, the visitors have not managed to gain victory in four matches in a row. Sporting Kansas City will not lose, but the fans are unlikely to see an abundance of goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Sporting Kansas City to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 2.5 goals scored
