Question of the Day: How Many Points do Sporting KC Need During this Home Stand?
Kelley L Cox-USA TODAY Sports Sporting Kansas City are in a bit of a rut. They are winless in five straight games counting the CCL and just 2-2-3 so far in MLS play in 2019. That leaves them in eighth place in the Western Conference, one spot below the red line. It’s very early, but Sporting KC are already 13 points behind first place Los Angeles Football Club. 13 points. SKC have just nine points through seven games.
That’s what makes the upcoming home stand so critically important for SKC. Typically they get off to fast starts, fade and then maybe recover. Maybe they are just getting the summer swoon out of the way in the spring.
