Toronto FC vs Sporting Kansas City tips and predictions

Winner far from obvious in MLS battle; deadlock in the reckoning

There's not much between Toronto FC and Sporting Kansas City in the MLS. The hosts are in fifth place with 10 points, compared to their opponents who are in ninth place on 6 points.

Any eventuality looks possible here. The draw makes some sense. The suspicion is that this will be tight. A goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away about.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Looking secure clearing their lines, Toronto FC have conceded only 2 goals in their last 5 matches, while Sporting Kansas City have been impressive defensively on the road. They've conceded an average of 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches away from home.

In previous matches in this head-to-head the last 3 have all ended in a draw.

Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out in a battle of attrition. It might not be a widespread opinion but the No BTTS option seems sensible.

Sporting Kansas City have drawn 7 of their last 17 matches on the road. And without much to get stuck into, the conclusion is that this also ends in stalemate.
