Prediction
Given Seattle’s home advantage and attacking potency, our forecast leans towards a narrow victory for the Sounders. We predict a 2-1 win in favour of Seattle Sounders FC, with Raúl Ruidíaz finding the net and João Paulo controlling the midfield tempo. The Sounders’ ability to press high and capitalize on set-pieces may be the deciding factor in this encounter.
That said, don’t discount St. Louis City SC’s organisation at the back and deadly transitions. A goal from Cristian Olivera could keep them in contention, especially if the Sounders concede possession in dangerous areas. Ultimately, the experience and depth of Seattle’s squad should see them edge out a competitive St. Louis side, but expect a tight, action-packed affair.
