TOUGH STRETCH: Minnesota enters on a four-match losing streak in which it’s conceded 14 goals. The Loons have just one win in their last 15 MLS matches.
ROAD ANOMALY: Minnesota United has been one of the best road teams in MLS this season with five wins away from St. Paul. Conversely, the Loons have won just twice at home, the fewest of any team in the league.
UNDERPERFORMING: Minnesota’s underlying numbers have not been as poor as the team’s results suggest. The Loons own the second-worst Goals-Expected Goals mark in MLS with -11.61, and they’ve been particularly snakebitten on the attacking end.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Kelvin Yeboah, F
One player not underperforming in front of goal is Yeboah, who is having an incredibly productive year in his second full season in Minnesota. The 26-year-old Ghanaian Designated Player has racked up 14 goals, which is tied for sixth in the league. He also enters on a hot streak, having scored six goals in his last six contests including three in a row.
