Sporting Kansas City return home on Wednesday after yet another win away from home, this time over rivals FC Dallas. They are 4-0-1 on the road in their last five outings. Their last road loss? The Portland Timbers on June 19th. This midweek matchup brings a chance at revenge.
The Timbers have been sliding down the table since these teams last met. They are 3-5-1 since that game, include a 2-6 shellacking at the hands of the Seattle Sounders on Sunday. They battled back from 0-2 down to level the score before completely collapsing at home.
