This win, along with their 4-0 triumph over U.N.A.M. - Pumas in the Leagues Cup, highlights their offensive capability when in form.

Recent home/away form

Seattle Sounders

The Seattle Sounders have shown mixed form at home recently, with their last six games resulting in three wins and three losses. Notably, there was a brief run of two consecutive wins in the Leagues Cup, including a high-scoring 4-0 victory against U.N.A.M. - Pumas and a 3-1 win over LA Galaxy. However, this positive streak was followed by two consecutive losses to Los Angeles FC in different competitions. The Sounders have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, with 67% of their recent home games seeing over 2.5 goals. Despite conceding in four out of six matches, they managed two clean sheets. Their goal-scoring record has been respectable, averaging 1.67 goals per game, but their defensive performances have been inconsistent, allowing 1.33 goals per game on average.

Sporting Kansas City

Sporting Kansas City's recent away form has been concerning, with only one win in their last six matches on the road. The team is currently experiencing a run of three consecutive away losses, which was only broken by a draw in their most recent game against the New York Red Bulls. Their defense has been particularly vulnerable, conceding an average of 2 goals per game and failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches. The 4-0 loss to Columbus Crew stands out as a particularly heavy defeat. Interestingly, 83% of their away games have seen both teams score and over 2.5 goals, suggesting their matches are often high-scoring affairs despite their struggles. This combination of defensive frailty and consistent goal-scoring has led to an average of 3 total goals per game in their recent away fixtures.
