Sporting Kansas City host Minnesota United in MLS on Wednesday, aiming to possibly get off the bottom of the Western Conference table. With just three wins from 15 and a meager 11 points in the bag, the Wizards are down in 15th place in their division.

It's deja vu for Kansas, who finished rock-bottom in the league in 2025, as they find themselves in a similar position once again following another terrible run in the top flight.

Their 10 defeats are the most by any side in the Western Conference, with Raphaël Wicky's side even losing their most recent two against New York Red Bulls and St. Louis.

Minnesota United have fared better by comparison, sitting in eighth position in the Western Conference table with six wins and 22 points from 15 matches so far.

The Loons mark their return to action for the first time since the summer break due to the 2026 FIFA World Cup and will be looking to make some impact after going their last four matches before the mid-season without a win.

The Wizards have endured a truly disappointing campaign once more, which the Loons will be buoyed to see. We do not expect a blow-out, but the away team should be able to come away with a narrow win here, deepening Kansas City's top-fight woes this season.

Prediction: Sporting Kansas City 1-2 Minnesota United
