Player to Watch: Capita

In what has been a historically terrible season for Sporting, Angolan winger Capita Capemba has provided one of the few bright spots: this rocket of a goal against CITY in their derby matchup earlier this season:

Sporting will look to pressure CITY's backline with Capita and Dejan Joveljić, another player who has had success against St. Louis. CITY must make sure that these two don't get going and provide their opponent with any positive momentum at home.

Do they have any St. Louis-area players?
