The MLS always gives a chance to get up, and that is what Sporting KC wants to grab to wake up from the nightmare it is living in 2024, but the Seattle Sounders have been recovering in the conference and will not want to miss this opportunity to climb positions.
In their last match, Sporting lost again, visiting Minnesota United 3-1. Their goal was scored by Johnny Russell.
The Sounders drew 1-1 at home with Real Salt Lake. The conversion was by Albert Rusnak.

Why Bet on Sporting KC?
Sporting Kansas City’s year could be described in many ways, but all adjectives would be negative. Their last place in the Western Conference has made them easy prey for their rivals. They are coming off a 3-1 loss to Minnesota United. The locals’ goals were by Tani Oluwaseyi, Robin Lod, and Kevin Arriaga. For Sporting, Johnny Russell scored.
Kansas’ poor campaign can be summarized as follows: two wins, five draws, and nine defeats, with 24 goals scored but 31 conceded. In addition, Sporting has seven defeats in a row and ten matches without a win, so it is clear that they are living a nightmare during the U.S. soccer season.
Another catastrophic statistic is that they have conceded 12 goals in their last five matches. It is the third-worst defense in the West in 16 appearances.
While their backline has been pitiful, their attack has not been bad. 24 goals scored is a good number, what’s more, they have scored in their five most recent matches. Their best scorer is Germany’s Erik Thommy with four goals, and he also has three assists.
Danny Flores, Logan Ndenbe, Kayden Pierre, and Remi Walter are the doubts for this match.
Why Bet on the Seattle Sounders?
It is clear that the first part of Seattle Sounders’ season has not been the best, occupying the last positions, but it seems that little by little, they are recovering in the MLS. In the previous matchday, they drew 1-1 against Real Salt Lake, the best team in the West. Rusnak scored for Seattle, while Carlos Andrés Gómez did it for Salt Lake at 90+9′.
The Sounders have three matches without losing, drawing two and beating St. Louis City. That is why they are in 10th place with 18 points. Their campaign has gone like this: four wins, six draws, and six defeats, with 19 goals scored and 19 conceded.
It is an acceptable visitor, despite losing more than it has won and drawn. Five times they have been beaten but have taken ten points. What’s more, away from home, they have won nine of the last 12 points. Its best scorer is Peruvian striker Raúl Ruidiaz, who has seven conversions and two assists.
The only injury reported by the club is winger Braudilio Rodrigues.
