On Sunday night, there's Major League Soccer in the city of Kansas, where Sporting Kansas City and the Los Angeles Galaxy will lock horns at Children's Mercy Park. Having failed to build on their high-scoring road success, Peter Vermes' men came unstuck on the road last time out, losing by two goals to one to Cincinnati. Sure, facing the current Eastern Conference leaders is a tough task, so we shouldn't judge them too harshly for that result. However, it's hard to be too positive about the recent efforts of Sunday's hosts, who continue to be far too open at the back. 

The visitors have also struggled to keep things tight this season, defending nothing like they did at times last season, while the 2024 MLS Cup winners have been nowhere near as strong offensively either. Still, they did score multiple goals last time out, while this game against one of the worst defensive teams in all of Major League Soccer represents an opportunity to thrive for Greg Vanney's men.

Our Sporting Kansas City vs Los Angeles Galaxy Prediction

Both teams are awful at the back, there really can be no denying that rather glaringly obvious fact, though given the odds on offer, the visitors simply look a decent bet to notch twice. The hosts have conceded with serious regularlity and show no signs of tightening up, so while they may thrive offensively, it's well worth betting that the visitors, who have scored a few more goals of late, enjoy themselves in the final third. Our Sporting Kansas City vs LA Galaxy Pick: LA Galaxy to Score Over 1.5 Goals.
