Betting Preview for Sporting KC VS LAFC  Betting On Sporting KC  The Wizards are still searching for their first win of the season. While they finally earned their first point last week in a 3-3 home draw against Minnesota United, their home form remains concerning. They have failed to score in two of their last four MLS home games and have lost their last three home meetings against their upcoming opponents. Betting On LAFC  The LAFC started the season strongly with four wins between February and early March but have since struggled, losing three consecutive matches. Their away form has been particularly poor, with back-to-back defeats and eight goals conceded. Last week, they suffered their first goalless outing of the season, falling 1-0 at home to Austin FC in MLS. They will now be looking to turn things around and improve their defensive record on the road. MatchPlug Prediction Sporting KC VS LAFC  Although LAFC have remained unbeaten against Sporting since 2021, their recent performances, poor form and absence of key players could hinder their chances of continuing their unbeaten run. Considering these factors, we predict a closely contested match ending in a draw. Our prediction for this match is a draw with both teams to score Final Prediction: Draw
