Minnesota United vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction & Betting Tips | 02/06/2024 | Football

Our prediction for this MLS match:

Minnesota United

Minnesota United

Sporting Kansas City

Sporting Kansas City

Minnesota United play host to Sporting Kansas City at their Allianz Field in what is expected to be an interesting MLS game. The Loons have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating Portland Timbers, sharing the spoils with Colorado Rapids, while losing to Los Angeles FC. Minnesota United are eager to return to winning ways as soon as possible, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. Both Franco Fragapane and Hugo Bacharach remain in the recovery room, while midfielder Emanuel Reynoso remains doubtful.

The Wizards, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom of the Western Conference. Given Sporting’s six-game losing run in the league, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the home team. In their last meeting at the venue Minnesota United defeated Sporting Kansas City 3-1. The good news for the visitors is that midfielder Memo Rodriguez is back from suspension.

Sporting Kansas City have been competing in Major League Soccer since 1996 and they won their first MLS Cup trophy in 2000. The club faced Chicago Fire at Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington in the play-offs final and Miklos Jon Molnar scored the winner for Bob Gansler’s team. 13 years later Sporting Kansas City met with Solt Lake in the title game and they were fortunate to defeat the Royals on penalties.

The Wizards welcome their rivals at Children’s Mercy Park, but they used to play some games at Blue Valley Sports Complex, Julian Field, Hermann Stadium and Durwood Soccer Stadium in the past as well. Sporting Kansas City were founded in 1995 and the club’s original name was Kansas City Wiz.
