The performances of both teams this season, and especially over the last month or so, coupled with their recent head to head record, all points towards under 2.5 goals being scored on Monday and DC United pinching a narrow victory. Six of the last seven encounters between these two teams have produced under 2.5 goals, and DC United have won three of the last seven meetings between the pair and have only lost once during that period. Under 2.5 goals have also been scored in four of DC United’s last six matches and the hosts have won three of their last five in the MLS, while Sporting KC haven’t won any of their last five matches in the MLS. Sporting KC have kept no clean sheets in their last nine matches, but DC United have kept five clean sheets in their eleven MLS games so far this season, which is why we think the hosts will claim a win and a clean sheet in what should be a tight and tense match.
Rooney top scores for DC United this season with six goals so far, while Nemeth is on the same total for Sporting KC. We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be scored on Monday, and have predicted a 1-0 win for DC United. The hosts have outperformed their guests this season and head into the match as the clear form favourites. This fixture hasn’t produced many goals over the last few seasons, and we’re expecting another tight and tense affair on Monday.
