Mar 26th features a match where Sporting KC hosts Real Salt Lake in a meeting of these two Major League Soccer teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 10 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. In their last match, Sporting KC recorded a 1-3 loss against Chicago Fire. Kacper Przybylko struck first for Chicago Fire in the 30th minute, then Xherdan Shaqiri added another in the 50th minute on a penalty. Sporting KC looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 2nd placed Real Salt Lake, recorded a 2-1 win against Nashville SC. Bobby Shou Wood struck first for Real Salt Lake in the 2nd minute, then in the 25th minute, Hany Mukhtar sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Walker Zimmerman. Real Salt Lake is looking for direction having earned 16 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 Real Salt Lake won the head to head battle with 3 wins.
Real Salt Lake is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Tate Schmitt and Wood each having 2 goals in their last five. Russell and Salloi 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.
