Goal Statistics

Goals have been a problem for Sporting KC of late. It has been 7 Major League Soccer games since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.4 suggests they'll have problems ending that run on Sunday morning against Minnesota United.

Minnesota United's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday morning, not least because Sporting KC have conceded in each of their last 10 Major League Soccer outings. A PG of 1.5 for E. Ramsay's side suggests that run should continue.
