SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs. PHILADELPHIA UNION Live Stream Online: 2014 MLS Standings, Live Coverage From Kansas City, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

Two clubs in the Eastern Conference of MLS will do battle today in a league match between Sporting Kansas City and the Philadelphia Union. The first-division clash scheduled for 8 p.m. ET will be held at Sporting Park in Kansas City and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on NBC Sports Network.

For SKC head coach Peter Vermes, it's normally an embarrassment of riches at his disposal. Injuries, suspensions and international duty, however, have hampered the club boss. There are limited options to fill a competitive back line.

"I don't know what it's going to be like on the weekend," Vermes told reporters after Tuesday's training session (via Steve Brisendine on MLS's official website). "My thought process right now is that he's [Seth Sinovic] going to be out. It's just a lot of games this year, fatigue probably setting in a little bit. That sort of thing happens."

"It's at a very inopportune time," he added. "From that point of view, it doesn't help us at all. I don't like it."

Like it or not, Kansas City's defense will be tasked with stymying a potent Union attack.
