The Seattle Sounders will face the Vancouver Whitecaps in their final group stage game. The Sounders are coming off a 2-1 loss against the Chicago Fire on Tuesday morning. The Whitecaps blew leads of 2-0 and 3-1 against the San Jose Earthquakes on Wednesday night, ultimately falling 4-3.
Recent matches have been very favorable for the Sounders. Since two teams from group A have two loses, and one of Cincinnati & New York Red Bull are guaranteed to get 4 points or fewer with a negative goal differential, the Sounders will automatically advance if they win.
