On Thursday, Major League Soccer unveiled the 2018 regular season schedule, with each of its 23 clubs playing 34 matches from early March through the end of October.
The Sounders will be broadcast on either ESPN or the FOX family of networks 13 times in the upcoming campaign, including the season opener against LAFC on March 4 at CenturyLink Field (2 p.m. PT / ESPN).
Of note, the Sounders are hosting two of their five 2018 Cascadia Cup matchups against Portland and Vancouver, with the club playing the Timbers three times on national television. Portland is the only side Seattle faces three times this season.
