Sporting Kansas City vs Austin FC Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer
by Dan Angell | in Major League Soccer Picks
Austin (7-6-7, 27 points) visits Sporting Kansas City (3-5-12, 14 points) in a match where one side is going to get what they need. Austin’s weak attack hasn’t scored more than once in a match in nine of its past 10 matches. Only New England has scored fewer goals this season than Austin’s 23, and Los Verdes have played to the under in six of their past eight matches.
The one exception where Austin scored more than once? You guessed it; Sporting Kansas City. SKC’s defense has been abysmal, giving up 44 goals in 20 matches. Things have really gotten out of hand in the past three matches, as SKC has conceded 12 times in its past 270 minutes of action and lost all of them.

Our Sporting Kansas City vs Austin FC Prediction
If this doesn’t break Los Verdes out of its scoring slump, nothing will. Nothing Kansas City has tried on defense has worked, in part because this roster just does not have enough depth to get the job done. Coach Peter Vermes has had to try pretty much anything he can to find some defensive answers, and SKC has been poor at the back line.
Austin is likely to push for at least a couple goals, and Los Verdes appear to be getting overlooked because of a disastrous showing at Real Salt Lake. RSL won that match 5-1, but it features the best offense in the Western Conference. Austin has taken points in three of its past six road matches and comes off a win at Minnesota, yet it’s seen as the underdog here. If this is the line available against a side with just three wins on the year, it’s worth taking. Our prediction for Austin vs. Sporting Kansas City is Austin double chance.
