If you feel like you haven’t seen Orlando City SC in Seattle in a long time, you’re right. These two clubs last played at Lumen Field in May of 2019, one of only three meetings in Puget Sound between the two clubs.
The Sounders record against OCSC is a strong 4-1-1, +7. Toss that out though, as the two teams have only met once since the Before Times. Orlando sits 7th in the East (11th overall) with a 7-6-5, +3 record. Seattle is third in the West (9th overall), but is behind the Lions by 0.03 ppm.
Both teams are wounded, with players gone for the Gold Cup, or just returning from international duty.
