Sporting KC vs Austin Prediction

The Wizards registered their first league win since July last week and will look to build on that form here. They scored at least four goals in the league for the first time since April in that win. Notably, their three wins in this fixture have all been registered at home.

Los Verdes have been in good touch in the league recently, suffering just one defeat since June. They have scored at least two goals in five of their last six games and will look to continue that goalscoring form here. They have won three of their last four meetings against Kansas, though all wins were registered at home.

Both teams will be without some players due to their international commitments, which might impact their performance here. With that in mind, they will likely settle for a draw.
