Sporting KC v FC Cincinnati: Preview, Predictions, Starting XI and more
What a week for Sporting Kansas City. They had the highest of highs last Saturday when they crushed the Montreal Impact 7-1 at home. Then the lowest of lows as they were essentially eliminated from CCL play by Monterrey with an embarrassing 5-0 loss on Thursday.
On just two days rest the team flew from Mexico and will immediately hit the road to play FC Cincinnati for the first time in the history of the two clubs. Sporting will venture into hostile territory on Sunday. Cincinnati had 32,250 fans packed into Nippert for their home opener. That’s more than 10,000 seats above the capacity of Children’s Mercy Park.
