Coming out of a three-week break, the Seattle Sounders are playing a three-game week. Match No. 2 is against Real Salt Lake on Wednesday, as the Sounders have their sites set on a second nine-point week of the season.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. In order to make that a possibility, the Sounders will need to take care of an RSL team that is playing well but who has also struggled mightily when playing in Seattle. The Sounders have won 10 of their last 11 home matches against RSL, dating back to 2013.
