Analysis Sporting KC

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after having eliminated Los Angeles FC with a home loss by (1‑5) in the previous round. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. In the last 9 home league matches Sporting KC has a record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 27 possible. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 9 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Sporting KC are not going through  a good time in the competition. However, in this confrontation will play at home and the support of the fans will be key for the home team to emerge victorious. The coach is expected to take to the field a very competitive team to win this duel, he is aware that it will not be easy, but the team are motivated. In their last confrontation the team were defeated by Real Salt 2-0, away from home.
And in their last home game, they were beaten by Los Angeles Galaxy, 2-0. That is, manager Peter Vermes will have to find a solution to the team's problems. In addition to the problems in the field, there are also problems outside it. Well, the medical department is full. Erik Hurtado, Jaylin Lindsey, Rodney Wallace and Roger Espinoza should be the coach's absences. Jimmy Medranda, Johnny Russell, Graham Zusi and Botond Barath are in doubt.

Confirmed Lineup: Timothy Melia, Matt Besler, Graham Zusi, Botond Baráth, Seth Sinovic, Gedion Zelalem, Yohan Croizet, Ilie Sánchez, Felipe Gutiérrez, Dániel Sallói, Gerso Fernandes.

Analysis Chicago

The away team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a home win by (5‑1) against Atlanta United. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 4 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 28 conceded; against 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 13 conceded. In the last 9 away league matches Chicago Fire has a record of 3 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 3 points out of 27 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 9 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 19 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Chicago Fire's situation is similar to that of the opponent, both are in poor shape and need to win in the competition to get out of the situation in which they are. It will be a well-contested showdown, although the two teams are not the most qualified, they need to win and they will go up each other and the confrontation will be defined in detail. Whoever misses less will win this duel.
Chigado Fire are aware of the difficulties they will face, but the coach trusts his team and will do his best to win. He should put on the field a very competitive but defensive team. He will wait for the opponent to explore the counterattacks and thus surprise the opposing team. Johan Kappelhof should be the only absence of coach Veljko Paunovic.

Confirmed Lineup: Kenneth Kronholm, Francisco Calvo, Grant Lillard, Brandt Bronico, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Dax McCarty, Aleksandar Katai, Nicolás Gaitán, Fabian Herbers, Przemysław Frankowski, Charles Sapong.
