The 24th week of the Major League Soccer regular season sets up perfectly for Sporting Kansas City fans.
At 9:30 p.m. CT on Saturday, Manager Peter Vermes' men will take the field at Banc of California Stadium for their inaugural meeting with expansion side Los Angeles Football Club. The teams are tied for third place in the ultra-competitive Western Conference, boasting identical 10-6-6 records, and a victory for either club could prove decisive as the playoff picture takes shape.
Following Saturday's late encounter on FOX Sports Kansas City and FOX Sports Midwest Plus, supporters will then be treated to a star-studded tripleheader on Sunday, with two Eastern Conference clashes followed by a pivotal battle between FC Dallas and Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field.
