After rallying for a 4-4 draw against the New England Revolution, Sporting Kansas City look to snap a four-match winless streak against an Atlanta United squad that come to Children's Mercy Park after claiming their first win at Mercedes-Benz Stadium this year. 


Sporting (2-2-4) rallied from a 3-1 deficit to draw the Revs 4-4 at home last Saturday night with Krisztian Nemeth scoring a brace against his former club. 


Thanks to a second-half Julian Gressel goal, Atlanta (2-3-2) defeated the Colorado Rapids, 1-0, at home, the Five Stripes' second win in their last three games.
