LINEUPS: Jordan Morris and Léo Chú will get another opportunity build on their impressive partnership against St. Louis City. The big change to the lineup from a week ago is the absence of João Paulo, who suffered a hamstring injury. Josh Atencio will start in his place.
It probably wasn’t what anyone expected when they first looked at the schedule, but today’s match between the Seattle Sounders and St. Louis City SC is a genuine top-of-the-table clash. The expansion club started the season 5-0-0 before losing their first game of the season last week against Minnesota United, while the Sounders are two points behind at 4-1-1 and riding a two-game winning streak.
