The rookie defender will make his first MLS start -- and first appearance since July -- as Seattle looks to lock up a playoff berth.
Here are the notable notes for Wednesday night’s match between the Sounders and Houston Dynamo at CenturyLink Field:
- Drew Fischer is the referee, Jeremy Hanson and Cameron Blanchard are his assistants and Allen Chapman is the fourth official.
- Seattle (13-13-5) can clinch a playoff berth highly unlikely as recently as August with a win. Three points would take Seattle six points clear of seventh-place Portland and lock up the total-win tiebreaker over their Cascadian rivals.
