After a dozen meetings between Seattle Sounders and Minnesota United there can be no doubt who owns this matchup. Brian Schmetzer’s team is 10-1-1, +17 against Adrian Heath.
Some of that is due to the first few years of the Loons existence, when they were awful. But they aren’t always awful. Over the last four seasons they’ve made the playoffs each year, as well as an Open Cup final, yet they’ve still struggled against Seattle.
On Saturday night Heath’s side will look to take advantage of a Sounders lineup that will be greatly reduced in strength.
