The Seattle Sounders head into the Leagues Cup break with one more chance to solidify their position. If they can beat FC Dallas today, there’s a chance to be tied with St. Louis City at the top of the Western Conference. A loss, however, could leave them as low as fifth in the table.
To bolster their chances, they’ll be getting back Stefan Frei, Jordan Morris and Cristian Roldan. It’s not entirely clear which if any of those players will start, but all have been cleared to participate.
Standing in the Sounders’ way to a strong finish is FC Dallas, a team that has not won in Seattle since 2011 and who is just 2-6-0 in their last eight games.
