📋 Team News: Seattle Sounders FC
There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the sole fitness concern for the Seattle Sounders FC gaffer Brian Schmetzer to contend with thanks to an otherwise robust group. Cristian Roldán (Concussion) is sidelined.
In our view, The Sounders will possibly line up in a 4-1-4-1 system, handing starts to Stefan Frei, Alex Roldan, Yeimar Gomez, Jackson Ragen, Kelyn Rowe, Albert Rusnák, Ethan Dobbelaere, Obed Vargas, Nicolas Lodeiro, Leo Chu and Jordan Morris.
📰 Team News: Sporting Kansas City
Sporting Kansas City manager Peter Vermes has to choose a team with limited availability. Willy Agada (Stress response of the bone) and Kortne Ford (Achilles tendon surgery) are not ready for selection.
We reckon that SKC seem likely to play in a 4-3-3 formation by sending out Tim Melia, Jake Davis, Daniel Rosero, Robert Voloder, Logan Ndenbe, Roger Espinoza, Remi Walter, Erik Thommy, Johnny Russell, Alan Pulido and Dániel Sallói.
🧠 Prediction
In this match, Sporting Kansas City should get enough chances to break down this Seattle Sounders FC side, however it is unlikely to be as many as the goals that they could concede.
We are anticipating a 2-1 winning margin for Seattle Sounders FC by the conclusion of the game. Could easily see this go either way.
