Vancouver Whitecaps vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer

 by Carlos Zabala | in Major League Soccer Picks

An intriguing game between two teams with good streaks will take place in Canada at BC Place in Vancouver. Betting sites initially see the Canadian team as heavy favorites after the last performance shown against St. Louis City. However, the 4-1 score could be misleading since they faced a team greatly diminished by injuries with some very important defensive shortcomings. Still, the Whitecaps are 6th in the Western Conference with their sights set on 4th position.

Very different from the reality of Kansas City, which despite having won 4 of the last 5 games, this has not been enough to overcome the points deficit after a bad start and a terrible June. However, having won 2 games in a row in MLS, something they had not done before, could inspire them to make one last attempt to get going and reach 9th place.

Historically, the matches between the Whitecaps and Kansas City have left victories for both sides, many draws and never a clear dominator. However, the Canadians won the first round 1-2, by then they were underdogs with odds of +210. That game 2 months ago Kansas City dominated possession of the ball up to 61%, but they could do little with that because every time they lost the ball it meant a clear chance for the Whitecaps who generated up to 2.32 xg.

Our Vancouver Whitecaps vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction

Whitecaps have been able to fill the gap left by the injury of their important central defender Trsitan Blackmon. However, they have never been able to keep their goals clean since his injury. Kansas City's streak of winning games makes us think that this could be a closer game than anticipated by the betting sites. Even more so, taking into account the history of parity between both teams. Before winning the last 2 home games, Whitecaps had failed to win at BC Place on 4 consecutive occasions. The road victory against San Jose is perhaps the spark that Kansas City needed to improve its road performances. Our prediction for Vancouver Whitecaps vs Kansas City is: Kansas City win or Draw, +105 at FanDuel.
