Wednesday’s midweek showdown between Orlando City and the Seattle Sounders is a matter of opposites. Both clubs have seen opposite trajectories in 2018, with the Lions leaping out to a hot start in the Eastern Conference, while Seattle was stuck in the mire of the bottom of the West table. Fortunes changed for both, though, as OCSC has steadily dropped to the bottom of the league and the Sounders have raced up to fifth in the West.
Not to mention, Seattle brings its league-leading defense to Central Florida to compete against a team that just equaled the record for goals allowed on Saturday.
