The Seattle Sounders are hosting Atlanta United at Lumen Field on Sunday (1:30 p.m.; PT; FOX, 950 KJR AM, El Rey 1360 AM | TICKETS) in their first Eastern Conference match of the season. Here are three matchups to watch:
Raúl Ruidíaz vs. Miles Robinson
You can bet Ruidíaz will be savoring this battle. Robinson was on the receiving end of a moment of magic from the Peruvian two years ago when these two clubs last met. Ruidíaz is in great form to start the season — he’s second in MLS in goals scored with five — and will be eager to add to his tally against the young American center back.
