Sporting Kansas City will be desperate to end their miserable run when they welcome St Louis City in this MLS clash, but given their shaky defence, we predict a 3-1 away win. The hosts have lost three games in a row and sit at the bottom of the table with only 14 points, while their defensive problems remain a major concern. Sporting have conceded 2.30 goals per game across their last 10 matches and are yet to keep a clean sheet during that period. Their task is even tougher with Mosquera and Agyabeng suspended for the midweek encounter.
St Louis City, meanwhile, are enjoying a completely different run of form, collecting seven wins in their last 10 matches. Yoann Damet's men travel to Kansas following a 2-1 victory over San Jose and have scored an impressive 2.00 goals per game during their recent run. Celio Pompeu, Hiebert and McSorley remain sidelined, but their absences have not prevented St Louis from picking up results. The H2H record promises goals too, with over 2.5 landing in nine of 11 meetings and BTTS in eight.
St Louis City's fine form makes them the clear pick. Therefore, Away Win is our main betting tip for this MLS matchup, alongside St Louis City Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (Landed in 9 of the previous 11 H2H meetings).
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 20 August 2026 at 01:00.
