Sporting Kansas vs St Louis Preview & Picks


Sporting Kansas are on the edge of the Conference Semi-Finals, with their stunning 4-1 win over St Louis last week seeing the side set down a marker on the pitch. 

St Louis were poor last week, but they have a chance to show what they are really made of in this match, with their MLS playoff hopes on the line. 

  • Sporting hammered St Louis 4-1 in their last meeting 
  • Kansas have won their last four in a row 
  • St Louis have lost their last three on the bounce 
  • St Louis have conceded two or more goals in their last three outings

Head-To-Head


The sides have met four times this season, with St Louis winning twice, while Sporting have won the other two. Interestingly, with the exception of Sporting's win last week, no side has managed to secure a victory when on the road. 

Sporting Kansas Form 


Sporting Kansas were brilliant in their first clash with St Louis as they downed them in an impressive 4-1 win that will have the rest of the sides in the competition taking note of them.

15 total shots with 11 hitting the target saw Sporting shade St Louis statistically, and they managed to hit the back of the net with four of their 11 efforts on goal. The first-half was where they managed to do the damage with three goals scored between the 27th and 39th minutes. 

While they will face a far tougher test this week against a St Louis side that will be desperate to win, Sporting will be hugely confident they can back up one win with another. 

St Louis Form 


St Louis were poor in their last meeting with Sporting Kansas as they failed to take advantage of playing at home, with defeat giving them a mountain to climb in game two. 

While a win in this one is within their reach, they will have to be far better on their travels, with playing on their own turf giving them no real advantage as they fell to a heavy defeat. 

It will worry the players and fans that they have now lost their last three in a row with an aggregate score of 9-1. Without a clean sheet in their last three and with their attack misfiring, this could be the end of the line for St Louis this season. 

Verdict

With Sporting Kansas playing at home and St Louis losing their last three in a row, I am backing the home side to notch the win despite being unable to keep a clean sheet.
