Colorado Rapids remain unbeatable on their own patch but are now trying to improve their away form.
On Saturday, a pair of penalties saw Robin Fraser’s side cause a bit of an upset, beating LAFC 2-0 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
Gyasi Zardes converting, his first goal since joining from Columbus, before Diego Rubio made it two but only after his was retaken with the initial spot-kick saved.
So, the Rapids are now unbeaten in 22 successive regular-season home games which is the joint-longest streak in Major League Soccer history.
However, away from Denver, Colorado have lost four of five matches in 2022, only leaving Houston with a point in mid-March.
Will that change here?
Sporting Kansas City meanwhile finished as the best in the west in 2018 and 2020 but are currently languishing below the play-off line.
Peter Vermes’ side were beaten again on Saturday, getting hammered 7-2 by Portland at Providence Park.
This is the joint-second heaviest defeat in SKC’s history, only eclipsed by a 7-0 hammering by Chicago 21 years ago.
In the context of this season, the Wizards are now winless in seven, dating back to 26 March, so remain 12th in the west.
Will Children’s Mercy Park witness a much-needed home win?
