Huge value in this game to be had tonight.
The home win is @ 1.66 and this is a very very solid bet imo. Being a bit more risky try the Asian handicap -1 @ 2.11. I really cant see anything other than a Kansas win here so at worst you get your stake back if they win by 1 but i fancy them for a few goals.
So heres my reasoning...
Toronto are a new team this season. Only played a few games so far so literally no time at all to gel and get some consistency going.
With them being a new side they have brought in some experienced players but their side still lacks quality in depth. They are going to have to go down a similar route to Chivas and RSL where for their first 2 seasons they were the whipping boys of the league until they stabilised their side.
Couple of injury problems too. The experienced O Brien is out. Eska who i rate is doubtful too so on already a weak squad these injuries as well as a few other minor ones dont help.
Toronto have lost their first 2 games 2-0 away to Chivas and 4-0 away to New England. I rate Kansas an all round better team than these two so you can see where this is going.
Kansas have started off the season well. Only two games in but they have played away in argueably the two hardest away games they will this season to DC and Chicago.
A superb win over DC with a 2-1 loss to Chicago. Performances have been very good so far.
No real injury worries and with Eddie Johnson showing his class this early they look far too strong for Toronto and i think they are worth a decent bet with the straight home win kept for combos.
