vs.
6-10-5, 23 pts, 9th in the Eastern Conference
SKC Recap:
Sporting KC has some injury problems and realistically is more concerned with their midweek US Open Cup final. Expect a reserve lineup in many ways, but in reality the health concerns may be more reason for that than just rest.
New England recap:
New England has improved over the season, but lately have been overtaken by the vast improvement of the other teams at the bottom of the Eastern Conference. They haven't won since July 8th against New York, but did manage a draw in their last match-up with KC.
