Sounders coach Brian Schmetzer named an unchanged squad in the middle of his team's stretch of three games in eight days.
Here are the notable notes for Wednesday night’s match between the Sounders and Chicago Fire at CenturyLink Field:
- Hilario Grajeda is the referee, Eduardo Mariscal and Jonathan Johnson are his assistants and Baboucarr Jallow is the fourth official.
- This is the second of Seattle’s three matches in eight days and the middle section of Chicago’s three road matches in eight days. So yeah, this one might be a bit gristly.
