Seattle Sounders will welcome Minnesota United to the Lumen Field in their MLS Western Conference fixture on Sunday.
The hosts have struggled to get their season going, as they have just two league wins all season. They enjoyed a great run in the CONCACAF Champions League, winning the continental trophy earlier this month. However, they have been unable to replicate that form in the MLS.
Seattle lost 2-0 at Dallas in their previous outing and were also beaten in the US Open Cup. Their game against San Jose Earthquakes ended 2-2 after extra time before the visitors won 10-9 on penalties.
Meanwhile, Minnesota have failed to score in their last two league games. However, they returned to winning ways in the US Open Cup, beating Colorado Rapids 2-1.
