Recent home/away form

St. Louis CITY

St. Louis CITY's recent home form presents a mixed picture, with some notable highs and lows. They've managed to secure three wins in their last six home games, including a solid run of two consecutive victories against LA Galaxy and Portland Timbers. However, their home form has been somewhat inconsistent, as evidenced by their most recent loss to Minnesota United. The team's goal-scoring ability at home is respectable, averaging 1.67 goals per game, but their defensive record is a concern, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per match. Particularly noteworthy is the high-scoring affair against Vancouver Whitecaps, which ended in a 4-1 defeat for St. Louis CITY. The team's games tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent home matches featuring over 2.5 goals, and both teams have scored in all of these games, suggesting exciting, open contests for the fans.

Sporting Kansas City

Sporting Kansas City's recent away form has been concerning, with only one win in their last six road games. They are currently on a three-game losing streak away from home, highlighting their struggles on the road. The team has been particularly vulnerable defensively, conceding an average of 2 goals per game in their last six away matches and failing to keep a single clean sheet during this period. Their 4-0 loss to Columbus Crew in the Leagues Cup stands out as a particularly heavy defeat. Despite these defensive issues, Sporting Kansas City has managed to score in 67% of these games, although their goal-scoring rate of 0.83 goals per game is relatively low. The high percentage of games with over 2.5 goals (67%) suggests that their away matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, primarily due to their defensive frailties rather than their attacking prowess.
