Less than 72 hours removed from a 3-2 league win over FC Dallas on Sunday, Sporting Kansas City will look to replicate the result as the clubs rematch in a pivotal Lamar Hunt US Open Cup quarterfinal clash on Wednesday at Children’s Mercy Park. Kickoff is slated for 8 pm CT with tickets available at SeatGeek.com and live coverage on Apple TV, Sports Radio 810 WHB and La Grande 1340 AM.

In what will be Sporting’s biggest match of the season to date, Manager Peter Vermes’ men have their sights set on taking another major step toward the club’s first trophy since 2017. Standing in their way is a Dallas side that suffered defeat in Kansas City on Sunday and has remained in the Soccer Capital of America since then, preparing for what figures to be a heated encounter with so much on the line.

As excitement builds toward this colossal midweek battle, we take a statistical look at the contest in our newest edition of By The Numbers, presented by Compass Minerals.
