Two teams enjoying contrasting fortunes this season will clash at Inter&Co Stadium on Saturday evening, when Orlando City and Sporting Kansas City lock horns in Florida. For the hosts, the campaign continues to go well, with the men in purple currently sitting in a very respectable fourth spot. Of course, there's work to be done, but right now, Orlando's position in the postseason looks assured. 

Unfortunalely, the same cannot be said for the visitors, who just like last season, are finding it difficult to keep pace with those teams vying for position inside the play-off places. Sure, there's time to change that, but the early signs are that it's going to be another disappointing campaign for SKC. They will arrive in Orlando off the back of two straight defeats, though they have managed to cause a few upsets on the road this season, and if they can draw on that, there is perhaps a smidgen of hope for them to cling to on Saturday evening.

Our Orlando City SC vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction

Sure, the SKC boys are struggling, there can be no denying that. They find it super tough to keep teams out, while they don't always do enough offensively. However, they do have one of Major League Soccer's most deadly forwards, who has certainly done his bit this season. On the break against a forward-pushing Orlando side, Dejan Joveljic could very easily thrive. The Serbian scorer has netted with regularity, especially on the road, so don't be surprised if he ensures that SKC get involved offensively in this game, even if they are likely to come up short overall. Our Orlando City vs Sporting Kansas City Pick: Dejan Joveljic to Score.
