The 2024 edition of MLS is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Sporting Kansas City take on Houston Dynamo at the Children's Mercy Park on Saturday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will need to step up to the plate this weekend.
Houston Dynamo are in eighth place in the MLS Western Conference standings and have not been at their best this season. The Texas-based outfit crashed out of the US Open Cup on penalties last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
Sporting Kansas City, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the league table and have been in poor form this season. The hosts edged Union Omaha to a 2-1 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
