Prediction: 2-1
Sporting Kansas City
Monday’s football game at Geodis Park will bring down the curtain on this Major League Soccer round. Nashville were struggling to find their best form at the start of the season, but they have been showing signs of improvement of late. Gary Smith’s troops are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. All Randall Leal, Irakoze Donasiyano, Robert Castellanos, and Teal Bunbury are likely to miss the game with injuries.
The Wizards, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom of the table, with the team suffering back-to-back losses to Vancouver Whitecaps and New England Revolution in the last two league fixtures. Since Sporting struggle at the back, home win should definitely be considered. To make things even worse for the away team, defender Oriol Rosell misses out through suspension.

Anibal Godoy is a professional footballer who plays for Panama national football team. The powerful midfielder was born on February 10, 1990 and he has been playing for los Ticos since March 4, 2010 when he made his debut for the national team.

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.
