St. Louis host Sporting Kansas City at the Energizer Park on Wednesday for a clash in MLS, looking to end their long unbeaten run in the competition. After starting their campaign with four unbeaten games, the Missouri outfit have lost six of their next eight, while going winless in all of them.
The two occasions they managed to avoid a loss during this run ended in 0-0 and 2-2 draws to Vancouver Whitecaps and Los Angeles FC.
With only two wins in the bag from 12 games, St. Louis are down in 13th position in the Western Conference standings. Only Houston Dynamo and LA Galaxy have statistically had a worse campaign.
On the other hand, Sporting Kansas are just above them in the standings by virtue of having scored more goals. In 12 games, Kansas have struck 17 times while St. Louis have scored nine.
