I had a chance to speak with our partner blog in Seattle about the big Sounders-Rapids match this weekend
The Colorado Rapids and Seattle Sounders get together Saturday night at Century Link Field and this is an important match-up for both clubs. This will be the final game before MLS releases players for 2016 Copa America Centenario (where presumably both the Rapids and the Sounders may lose players) and it also gives a chance for the Rapids to cement their hold on first in the West.
I had a chance to exchange questions with Dave at Sounder at Heart about this match and here is what he had to say:
Burgundy Wave: The Sounders are 4-2-1 in their last seven.
