Cristian Roldan gets third career start at right back as Sounders take on Chicago

Injuries to Kelvin Leerdam and Jordan McCrary have Cristian Roldan making a rare start at the right back position for the Sounders in their Saturday night clash against the Chicago Fire at CenturyLink Field.

This is one of those games the Sounders really have to come away victorious in if they hope to position themselves for a second half run at the playoffs; a home contest against the Chicago Fire on Saturday night, with Cristian Roldan making a suprising shift over to right back.

Kelvin Leerdam is still out with a hamstring strain while Jordan McCrary has a foot problem he still isn’t 100 percent comfortable changing direction with.
