Sporting Kansas City has gone undefeated for four successive matches. But, their five wins, five draws and eight defeats record puts them at the bottom half of the Western Conference. Matter of fact, Kansas has the highest number of losses in the conference.
Regardless, 4 out of their 5 wins were at home, all of which happened within their last 4 games. Due to this, it seems that playing at home tonight will inspire them to beat LAFC, as they have had recent victories in this venue.
Possible Lineup: (4-3-3): Kendall McIntosh; Jacob Davis; Robert Castellanos, Robert Voloder, Tim Leibold; Erik Thommy, Nemanja Radoja, Rémi Walter; Marinos Tzionis, Alan Pulido, Dániel Sallói.

The current MLS champions LAFC is experiencing a rough patch, failing to win any of their last 6 games across all competitions. These meagre results barred them from winning the CONCACAF Champions League, and they now struggle to recover from this setback.
In Los Angeles’ last game, they lost 1-0 to Houston Dynamo, another team in the Western Conference. What’s more alarming for the team is that they couldn’t score in their last four games. Furthermore, they don’t have a favourable away record, winning only two out of seven matches in the current MLS season.
It is also worth noting that in four of their last five games across all contests, they were disadvantaged at halftime.
Possible Lineup: John McCarthy, Ryan Hollingshead, Denil Maldonado, Giorgio Chiellini, Diego Palacios; José Cifuentes, Illie Sánchez, Erik Dueñas, Stipe Biuk, Carlos Vela, Denis Bouanga.

MatchPlug Prediction
Despite being one of MLS’ top teams in the Western Conference, Los Angeles FC has had a disappointing form recently.
Therefore, going against a team like Sporting Kansas City, who have not had much strength like the locals, could be a challenge for them. It seems the odds will favour Kansas City to emerge victorious.
Final Prediction: Kansas City Moneyline.
