Preview
NYCFC and Sporting KC face at Citi Field, in a match for the 0ª round of the MLS. The only recent head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 27‑07‑2019, and ended in a (3‑1) win by New York City. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis NYCFC

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a home win by (3‑0) against SJ Earthquakes. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 24 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 42 goals scored and 12 conceded. For the league, NYCFC won 12 points out of 15 possible points, after 4 wins and 1 loss in the last 5 home matches. In 8 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

The three consecutive victories conquered by New York City made it move up in the leaderboard. What drew the most attention in these matches was the amount of goals scored, given that the team scored 14 times. If it maintains the efficiency of its offense, the team can leave the field with a good result over Sporting Kansas City. Therefore, it has to focus on the match and work with quality so there's no risk of being surprised.

Confirmed Lineup: Sean Johnson, Thiago Martins, Alexander Callens, Chris Gloster, Nicolas Acevedo, Tayvon Gray, Keaton Parks, Santiago Rodriguez, Héber, Talles Magno, Thiago Eduardo de Andrade.

Analysis Sporting KC

The away team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a home draw by (2‑2) against Dallas. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 28 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 25 goals scored and 15 conceded.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 5 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 10 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Sporting Kansas City has been disappointing a lot, as a more solid campaign was expected. Of course, it still has plenty of time to fight for a reaction, but the ideal thing is that the team works now so it doesn't get things unnecessarily complicated. Facing a difficult match, it will be necessary to play a higher quality football, because only then will it be able to score. Therefore, quality in all sectors is mandatory.

Confirmed Lineup: Timothy Melia, Robert Voloder, Kortne Ford, Logan Ndenbe, Cameron Duke, Rémi Walter, Roger Espinoza, Oriol Rosell, Dániel Sallói, Johnny Russell, Khiry Shelton.
