Facing a weak team like D.C. United should give the Seattle Sounders an opportunity to regain their form. United—the original MLS version—is the third worst attack in the league by expected goals and worst in the league by goals scored. They also have one of the worst defenses. This is a truly bad team in a league where it is hard to have bad teams. They are also without their best player.
Wednesday’s game (7:30 PM, Q13) is the return of Sounders soccer after a two week pause for the group stage of the Gold Cup.
