The Seattle Sounders open the 2020 MLS season at home against the Chicago Fire. The Sounders are coming into this game having just played on Thursday night in Concacaf Champions League. This will also be their third competitive match in 10 days.
The Fire should be well rested coming into this match as they have had no competitive matches so far this season but conditioning for them could become a factor.
This is the 13th all-time meeting between these two. The Sounders hold a 8-2-4 advantage in the series and that includes their 4-0-2 record at home.
