Odds
Match Preview
The high-quality in the Western Conference continues this weekend, as one of the leading hopes are back in action. Vancouver have been in strong form throughout the campaign, winning 12 of their 23 matches, and suffering just five losses. A victory this weekend will send them to the top of the conference standings ahead of the 2025 Leagues Cup.
The Whitecaps bring solid recent form to the table this weekend, having avoided defeat in their last two. They have bounced back to winning ways emphatically since heavy losses against the LA Galaxy and Colorado. Vancouver have excelled in home matches this season, winning six of their ten matches, and averaging 2.2 goals per game.

Sporting KC have an outside chance of finishing in a playoff place this year, but confidence can be taken from their recent form despite a defeat against the Seattle Sounders. Prior to that defeat, they had gone three without a defeat, winning on two occasions. They got their form back on track with a respectable draw against New York last weekend.
However, Sporting KC have struggled to pick up points in their matches on the road this season. They have suffered defeats in 55% of their away matches, and they have allowed a high average of 1.64 per 90. That poor defensive record will be alarming against a strong attacking rival on Saturday.
Head-to-Head Record
The Vancouver Whitecaps have won their last two matches against Sporting KC. Their latest victory was recorded last July, as they landed a 2-1 home success. Wins in this fixture are a rarity for Sporting KC, as they have registered just a single victory across the last seven meetings.
Vancouver Whitecaps vs. Sporting KC Picks
The Whitecaps have been reliable at BC Place throughout 2025, and they look like a strong chance to continue their excellent form in the MLS this weekend. Their chances are made stronger based on their superior head-to-head record against their opponents.
