Why Bet on Sporting KC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sporting KC is the current 11th-placed team in the Western Conference. They need to improve their numbers quickly, as they come in with 7 wins, 8 draws, and 11 losses as of this moment. This leaves them out of the post-season and just 8 games shy of ending their regular phase.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coach Peter Vermes\u2019 boys are underachieving dramatically. In most games, the team is playing well, but that\u2019s not what counts in soccer. However, this was not the case the last time out,\u00a0as they won the last match 3-0 against SJ Earthquakes. They had 59% possession and six shots on target.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also had five corners at Children’s Mercy Park, with Daniel Salloi, Johnny Russell, and Erik Thommy on the scoresheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on St. Louis City?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

St. Louis City continues to helm the Western Conference,<\/a>\u00a0as they brand 47 points with 15 wins, 2 draws, and 9 losses, and feel unchallenged with a 7-point lead over the 2nd place.\u00a0<\/strong>However, they have one game more than LAFC, so the distance could close sooner or later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rookies had six shots on target in their last game,<\/strong> beating Dallas 2-1 at Citypark, with Anthony Markanich and Noekkvi Thorisson on the scoresheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 52 goals scored and 33 Conceded, it is clear that St. Louis has chosen violence this season. Their measly two draws in 26 games probe that.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Betting Analysis: Sporting KC vs. St. Louis City<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even though hosting the clash should give Sporting KC a lot of favor, with their home crowd supporting them as they continue to build their streak, St. Louis City is simply a tough opponent to handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The odds are pushing toward Sporting KC, but we are simply not buying it; we think that to top dogs are not going to let their opponents have an easy time, and we do not expect them to go out without a point. However, considering that a draw involving the new franchise is rarer than a gold coin,\u00a0we will go for a visitors’ win.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go for a victory for St. Louis City at +270. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $270 for a total payout of $370.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
