Sporting KC v San Diego : Major League Soccer match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sun 10th Aug, 01:45 BST, Children's Mercy Park, Kansas City

the Children's Mercy Park is the setting on Sunday morning, as Peter Vermes's Sporting KC host Mikey Varas's San Diego in the Major League Soccer. The aim of this preview is, quite simply, to help you make the smartest bet possible. To this end, stats for every betting market have been laid out below, with head-to-head history and particularly important form streaks highlighted. Odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers are also given.

Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

As Peter Vermes and his side approach kick-off, we predict a combined total of over 3 goals scored during the fixture. Stats imply both clubs possess a number of attacking options, and have had few problems in finding the back of the net of late. In the absense of a strong favourite to win the game, we're going for over 2.5 goals.

An away win looks like the most likely outcome in the win/draw/win market, with our predictive algorithm suggesting there’s a 47% chance of San Diego coming away with a win.
