Kansas' away form does not inspire confidence and despite their recent win in Nashville there should be little interest in backing them to get a victory against one of the form teams in the division.

They should, though, be able to get on the scoresheet and this fixture has provided plenty of goals over the years.

The side from Seattle have scored in 10 of the 12 competitive fixtures they have played at home this season, while Kansas have netted in six of their nine away games.
