Seattle Sounders vs Austin Previews & Picks


The Seattle Sounders ended a run of two without a win in their last match by defeating the Houston Dynamo 1-0 on the road. 

Austin were consigned to yet another defeat as their 1-0 loss to FC Dallas made it eight without a win for the side.  

  • Seattle Sounders have won five of their last 10 (L3, D2) (MLS)
  • The Sounders have only lost once at home (W4, D1) (MLS)
  • Austin have not won any of their last eight (L4, D4) (MLS)
  • Austin have only won once on the road (D1, L3) (MLS)

Head-To-Head


The Sounders are unbeaten against Austin in their last four, winning twice and drawing twice. 

Seattle Sounders Form 


The Seattle Sounders had hit a worrying run of form that saw them draw with struggling Real Salt Lake before then being humbled in a 2-1 loss to bottom of the table Sporting Kansas City. 

However, they got back to winning ways with a fighting 1-0 victory over Houston Dynamo in a win that has seen them move back to the top of the table. 

The Sounders know they cannot sit on their hands though, with their two point lead over LAFC in second coming courtesy of the fact they have played two more games than their nearest rivals. With this in mind, the Sounders know they have to keep winning games to keep the pressure on their opponents. 

Austin Form 


Austin have been struggling this season, with just two wins coming from their opening 11 matches. 

Their 1-0 loss to FC Dallas in their last game made it eight without a win, with this run including four defeats and four draws. The 10 points they currently have means they are only two points behind Minnesota United in ninth, but they cannot keep dropping points if they are to make it to the playoffs. 

However, with a single win on the road in five attempts, this is a tough assignment for Austin.
