Sporting Kansas City will open the 2024 Leagues Cup on Sunday by welcoming the Chicago Fire to Children's Mercy Park in the opening match of the tournament for both sides.

Sporting KC：

Sporting Kansas City faces an uphill battle in the 2024 MLS season, currently sitting 12th in the Western Conference, nine points below the playoff line. Despite recent improvements with a four-game unbeaten streak at home, consistency remains an issue for Peter Vermes' squad. They've shown strength in scoring at Children's Mercy Park but have struggled in the Leagues Cup, conceding heavily in two of their three home matches.

Chicago Fire's：

The Chicago Fire continue to struggle in the 2024 MLS season, second from the bottom in the Eastern Conference. They've failed to secure consecutive wins and have scored the majority of their goals in the second half. Despite their inconsistency, they had a strong showing in last year's Leagues Cup group stage but have faced difficulties on the road this season, notably at Children's Mercy Park.
