The Sounders will have a different-looking lineup for Sunday’s game against the Houston Dynamo than the one that got blown out last week in Columbus.
Will Bruin has gutted his way back in to the starting lineup up top at striker despite going down with a dislocated elbow almost two weeks ago. The Sounders are thrilled to see Bruin back out there, as they don’t view Seattle product Seyi Adekoya as a natural striker and would prefer to keep him flanked out on the wing more.
Adekoya got the start up top against Columbus because of injuries but was largely ineffective.
