Sporting KC vs. LAFC Betting Guide

Sporting Kansas City (5-8-5) vs. Los Angeles FC (7-3-5)

Children's Mercy Park (Kansas City, KS)

Saturday June 17 @ 7:30 PM CT

For our first MLS betting post of the year, we're live in attendance in Kansas City for this intraconference matchup.

Sporting KC enters tonight victorious in six of their last eight league matches, after assuming the 15th spot in the Western Conference for much of March and April. SKC is currently tied for 9th in the West with 20 points, alongside of Portland and Minnesota

On the contrary, LAFC is reeling for a win, with their last win coming in Mid-May (including both MLS and cup matches). Despite their recent struggles, the Black & Gold are holding steady at 3rd in the West, equaled with Dallas and San José with 26 points.

Prediction: Sporting KC TNB (Tie No Bet)

Expect Sporting to try to maintain control of this matchup tonight in front of a sold out home crowd. A scorching hot team backed by the Blue Hell, paired with a 2-3-2 LAFC away record, has the making for a tightly contested matchup. Logic says to give the home team the slight edge.
