Sporting Kansas City
Monday’s football game at BC Place pits together Vancouver Whitecaps and Sporting Kansas City, the two teams who are eyeing a place in the playoffs. Sporting aim to overtake Seattle in top position, and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach. A man to watch in the away team will be Johnny Russell, who scored a brace in the 4-2 win over Houston Dynamo.
The Canadians, on the other hand, are only one point behind the playoffs berth, and seeing that they are likely to go for a win as well, we are tempted to put our money on over 2.5 goals. Sporting Kansas City defenders should have Brian White at bay as the 25-year-old has been scoring goals for fun of late. In their last meeting in the MLS Sporting defeated Vancouver 3-0.
