Sporting KC Faces St. Louis Amid Coaching Change

Sporting Kansas City is set to host St. Louis City SC on April 5 at Children's Mercy Park, with kickoff scheduled for 7:30 p.m. CT. The team, currently seeking their first win of the season, faces St. Louis after parting ways with long-time manager Peter Vermes, marking a new era under interim head coach Kerry Zavagnin. Sporting KC has struggled this season, holding a winless record and seeking to improve against a St. Louis side that has performed well defensively. Fans are encouraged to arrive early for various pre-match activities and to utilize the new Amazon Just Walk Out technology available at the venue. The matchup is expected to be competitive, as Sporting KC historically has not lost at home against St. Louis. This game marks the first meeting of the season between the two rival teams.
