Sounders FC 2 (9-13-2, 29 points) returns to league play after a two-week break with a home match against Western Conference opponent Tulsa Roughnecks FC (10-10-3, 33 points) on Wednesday, August 30 (7:30 p.m. PT, live-stream on SoundersFC.com). The Rave Green enter the match in fine form, having collected six points from two recent Cascadia matches against T2 and WFC2, and can drastically increase their chances of securing a postseason berth with a win over the Roughnecks, who currently hold the eighth and final playoff spot in the West.
While Wednesday’s match is the first meeting of the 2017 season between these two sides, S2 is intimately familiar with the system employed by the Chicago Fire affiliate.
