Kansas City welcomes Salt Lake to the Children's Mercy Park in this MLS encounter. The home team are currently in 12th position with three points in the Western Conference while the visitors are in second position with 10 points. Kansas City have had an uncharacteristic start to the season as they have only won one of their four matches. They have however had a tough start to their season playing three of their matches away from home. Their only victory this season has come in their home match. Kansas City will have revenge on their minds after being beaten by Salt Lake in the playoffs last season. They led the quarter final for most of the match until two late strikes from the opposition knocked them out. One of their biggest issues so  far has been their lack of goals scoring just three in the first four matches.

Salt Lake had a goalless draw in their first match but have been flawless since then with three wins in a row. They find themselves in joint top position but have a inferior goal difference to Los Angeles Fc. Salt Lake will be looking at repeating their victory the last time these sides met. Kansas City have built their early season success on a strong defensive set up conceding just three goals in their four matches. Their away victory in the last match was their first victory on the road in five matches if the pre-season matches are also included.
