Our prediction for this MLS match:
Cincinnati play host to Sporting Kansas City at their Nippert Stadium on Thursday morning. Cincinnati do not seem to be at the top of their game ahead of the midweek clash, and, as things stand now, they will find it hard to book their place in the MLS playoffs. The hosts head into the match following back-to-back losses to DC United and Minnesota United, and you should keep in mind that the likes of Garza (injury), Tyton (injury), and Deplagna (coronavirus) are all out of contention.
The Wizards, on the other hand, aim to build on a thrilling 4-0 win over Colorado Rapids. Sporting Kansas City are eager to retain top position in the Western Conference, and they should take advantage of the current atmosphere in the home team’s dressing room. Even though Graham Zusi is sidelined with injury, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Western Conference leaders.
Highlighted Player (Kendall Waston):

Kendall Waston is yet another Costa Rican footballer who plays in MLS. The Vancouver Whitecaps centre back started his senior career at Sarprissa of Costa Rica and he played for the likes of Carmelita, Nacional, Bayamon, UCR and Perez Zeledon (on loan) in the past as well.
Waston moved to MLS in the summer of 2014, signing a deal with Vancouver Whitecaps. The Costa Rica international scored only two goals in 11 appearances for the club in the 2014 season, but the club chiefs decided to keep hold of him. He found the net twice in 30 league games in the 2015 MLS campaign, while scoring three goals in his last season with the Canadian club.
Kendall Waston was born in San Jose, Costa Rica on January 1, 1988 and he made his debut for the Costa Rica national team in May, 2013 in a match against Canada. The Vancouver Whitecaps forward scored his first goal for los Ticos on December 16, 2015 in a 1-0 victory over Nicaragua.
Highlighted Team (Sporting Kansas City):

Sporting Kansas City have been competing in Major League Soccer since 1996 and they won their first MLS Cup trophy in 2000. The club faced Chicago Fire at Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington in the play-offs final and Miklos Jon Molnar scored the winner for Bob Gansler’s team. 13 years later Sporting Kansas City met with Solt Lake in the title game and they were fortunate to defeat the Royals on penalties.
The Wizards welcome their rivals at Children’s Mercy Park, but they used to play some games at Blue Valley Sports Complex, Julian Field, Hermann Stadium and Durwood Soccer Stadium in the past as well. Sporting Kansas City were founded in 1995 and the club’s original name was Kansas City Wiz.
The Wizards wear navy blue shirts and dark blue shorts when playing at home, while the colour of their away kit is blue. Former Wigan Athletic man Roger Espinosa is regarded as one of the club’s most notable players and he has been playing for the Children’s Mercy Park outfit since 2015.
