High flying FC Cincinnati will be looking to make it five wins on the spin when they host lowly Sporting KC at the TQL Stadium on Saturday. Last week's thrilling 2-3 victory over Chicago moved Cincy up to second place in the Eastern Conference, and with the likes of Evander, Kevin Denkey and Pavel Bucha all in top form, this looks like being a season to remember for Pat Noonan's side.
In contrast, it has been a dismal start to the campaign for KC. Despite last weekend's excellent win in San Jose, they are still languishing in the bottom three of the Western Conference. Head Coach Peter Vermes was relieved of his duties three weeks ago, and the club are still on the hunt for his full time successor. Unless they can quickly resolve that situation and find a coach to turn their fortunes around, it looks like it will be a season to forget in KC.

Our FC Cincinnati vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction
There have been goals galore in KC's recent games and we predict more of the same on Saturday. Cincinnati have been one of the most impressive teams in MLS so far, and whilst that has largely been down to their defensive displays, last week's win at Soldier Field showed that they have plenty of attacking flair as well. And whilst KC have been scoring goals for fun in recent weeks, it's hard to see them being able to stop Cincy making it five wins in a row. Our prediction for FC Cincinnati vs Sporting Kansas City is: Cincinnati to win and over 3.5 goals.
