Sporting Kansas City and Philadelphia Union square off against each other with the Wizards hoping to build on a 3-1 win over Los Angeles FC. The Wizards bounced back from a 4-3 defeat to Dallas, but their playoff chances remain slim as they are stuck at the bottom with only 18 points. Jacob Bartlett will be pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the last league match. Sporting have won just 40% of their last 10 home games and conceded 1.60 goals per match in that period.
The U’s, on the other hand, are on a four-game winning run and will be looking to stay in a playoff berth. Their display in a convincing 5-0 win over San Diego was brilliant, with Philadelphia scoring 2.40 goals per game across their last 10 matches. Philadelphia have also won three of their last four away games, while averaging 2.40 goals per match on the road. There are no fresh injury worries for the visitors.
Philadelphia are in splendid form with four straight wins, while Sporting have won just 20% of their last 10 overall matches. Therefore, Away Win should be considered, alongside Philadelphia or Draw and Over 1.5 goals (85% of the last 20 H2H meetings produced at least two goals, while Philadelphia's recent games average 3.40 goals).
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 20 September 2026 at 01:30.
