July 31st features a match where Sporting KC hosts Austin at Children’s Mercy Park in a meeting of these two Major League Soccer teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 27 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. Sporting KC is fresh off their 0-2 loss against Los Angeles FC. Chicho Arango struck first for Los Angeles FC in the 56th minute, then Gareth Bale added another in the 82nd minute In the end, Sporting KC was frustrated by Los Angeles FC’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Los Angeles FC ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 8 points in their last 10 matches, while 2nd placed Austin is fresh off their 3-4 loss against New York Red Bulls. Serge Ngoma struck first for New York Red Bulls in the 14th minute, then Dru Yearwood added another in the 26th minute. Austin should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 18 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win each.
Sebastián Driussi has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, hes scored 4 goals for Austin. Rémi Walter and Espinoza Ramirez are the top scorers for Sporting KC in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
