    Minnesota United vs Sporting KC Prediction

    Minnesota United should have enough in attack to get the job done at Allianz Field. Kwarteng Yeboah’s 17 goals give the hosts a cutting edge that Sporting KC, sitting 15th in the West with a -39 goal difference, simply haven’t been able to match defensively. Expect goals at both ends, but Minnesota United to edge it 2-1 and strengthen their position 13th in the Western Conference playoff picture.
