Sporting Kansas City heads south tonight for an evening matchup with Houston Dynamo FC at Shell Energy Stadium. Sporting will be looking to build on the club’s impressive 3-0 victory over Vancouver last weekend but head to a stadium where the Dynamo have only lost once all season.
Sporting midfielder Nemanja Radoja is added to the injury report with an adductor issue after exiting last week’s win at halftime. Outside backs Logan Ndenbe and Kayden Pierre are removed from the report after making their comebacks for SKC and SKC II, respectively, last weekend.
