The MLS returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Sporting Kansas City take on an impressive Austin FC side in an important clash at the Q2 Stadium on Saturday.
Austin FC are currently in sixth place in the MLS Western Conference standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The hosts slumped to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Vancouver Whitecaps in their previous game and will look to bounce back this weekend.
Sporting Kansas City, on the other hand, are in 11th place in the league table at the moment and have struggled so far this season. The away side played out a 2-2 draw against Real Salt Lake last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Austin FC have managed to hit their stride in the MLS and are in good form at the moment. The hosts will be intent on moving up the league table and will need to make the most of their purple patch.
Sporting Kansas City can pack a punch on their day and have shown flashes of their potential over the past month. Austin FC are the better team at the moment, however, and should be able to win this game.
