Popis: In this work we study possible connections between $B$-meson anomalies and Kaon physics observables in the context of combined solutions with the singlet and triplet scalar leptoquarks $S_1$ and $S_3$. By assuming a flavor structure for the leptoquark couplings dictated by a minimally broken $U(2)^5$ flavor symmetry we can make a sharp connection between these two classes of observables. We find that the bound on $\mathcal{B}(K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \nu\nu)$ from NA62 puts already some tension in the model, while the present limits on $\mathcal{B}(K_L \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-)$ and $\mu \to e$ conversion in nuclei can be saturated. Relaxing instead the flavor assumption we study what values for $\mathcal{B}(K^+ \rightarrow\pi^+ \nu\nu)$, as well as for $\mathcal{B}(K_L \rightarrow\pi^0 \nu\nu)$ and $\mathcal{B}(K_{L,S} \rightarrow\mu^+ \mu^-)$, are viable compatibly with all other phenomenological constraints.
