Head-To-Head
The Sounders have won two of their last 10 against the Revolution, with the latter winning three meetings and five ending as draws including their last three meetings.
The Seattle Sounders have put together a decent run of form that has allowed them to move into ninth in the Western Conference, a point ahead of Austin FC in 10th.
While a playoff spot is far from secure, the Sounders will fancy their chances of building as they look to extend a four-game unbeaten run.
Frustratingly, the Sounders have been prone to draws at home, with five stalemates coming from their 10 home matches. With New England looking to ensure they avoid defeat in this one, this match looks set to end as a draw between two sides that dare not lose.
New England Revolution bounced back from a stunning 5-1 loss to Columbus Crew with a battling 2-1 win over Atlanta United on their own patch.
Their hammering at the hands of the Crew put an end to a four-game winning run with New England suddenly revitalising their hopes of securing a top-nine spot.
While New England have won their last two on the road, we predict that they will struggle to break their opponents down as they are forced to settle for a point on the road.
