Sporting KC vs. NY Red Bulls Live Stream: Watch Online Streaming MLS Game

Sporting Kansas City and the New York Red Bulls are playing on the MLS schedule on Tuesday night and the matchup in KC at Sporting Park comes at 8 pm ET and the soccer match has NY looking to keep things on track after a slow start, while KC is looking to move near first place with a win and both teams are trying to find position in the eastern conference in Major League Soccer.

The World Cup is coming and that will disrupt things for a number of teams and heading into that stretch, New York comes in at sixth on the league table in the east, while Kansas City is in second place. The Red Bulls took a while to get going this season and now they have three wins in 13 games played and they are in front of Toronto by just one point. Kansas City has been up at the top of the standings since winning last year and they have five wins in 12 matches and are five points back of New England and tied with DC United with 18 points on the season.

Seattle is on top of the west with Real Salt Lake, while Colorado, FC Dallas and Vancouver rounds out the top five. The Red Bulls are currently looking up at the Columbus Crew, Houston Dynamo and DC United in the standings and they are trying to turn things around after playing so well last season. The Red Bulls were once again upset in the playoffs after coming in as one of the top seeds and that was another disappointment for the club in the postseason.

The Red Bulls started the season with a tough loss against Vancouver and then things got very tight, as the team pulled a draw in the next four games before losing to DC United and they did not get their first win until a month into the season with a victory over Philly. The team continued with a nice 4-0 win against Houston, but since then they have only won one of five matches and that was a 1-0 victory against Dallas and coming into the game they have lost three straight to Chicago, Toronto and Portland. The schedule continues this month with KC and then goes into June for matches against New England and Toronto before and during the World Cup schedule.

Kansas City started the season with an exciting loss on the road after a late goal and they have bounced back from that and now come into the game after a draw with Toronto. The team lost to Chicago before that and to Philly as well and that came after nice wins against Montreal and Columbus that saw the team outscore their opponents 5-0. Sporting Kansas City defender Chance Myers will be having surgery and that is a big hit for KC, as he re-signed with the team and had two goals last year while contributing to the MLS championship team.
