Recent home/away form

Vancouver Whitecaps

The Vancouver Whitecaps have had a mixed bag of results in their recent home games, with their last six matches yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. However, their form has improved in the last two home games, where they secured back-to-back victories against St. Louis CITY and Colorado Rapids. It's worth noting that their match against St. Louis CITY was a particularly high-scoring affair, with the Whitecaps coming out on top in a thrilling 4-3 encounter. Despite their inconsistent form, the Whitecaps have managed to score in all but one of their last six home games, averaging 1.33 goals per game, while conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game.

Sporting Kansas City

Sporting Kansas City's recent away form has been poor, with a run of five consecutive defeats before securing a win in their most recent match against San Jose Earthquakes.

Notably, there have been several high-scoring games, with all six matches featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 83% of the games. The 4-0 loss to Columbus Crew and the 4-2 defeat against LA Galaxy stand out as particularly disappointing results for Sporting Kansas City.
