Match Preview

A busy period on the schedule for the Seattle Sounders gets underway on Saturday, as they play their final match before the start of the 2025 Leagues Cup. The Sounders come into this stretch of fixtures in excellent recent form after avoiding defeat in their last five since the end of the FIFA Club World Cup.

Confidence levels around the camp will be high following an excellent home win against the San Jose Earthquakes last weekend. Danny Musovski was the match-winner, as he netted twice. However, the Sounders will be on the road this weekend, which is a slight concern. They have won just three of their eleven away matches, and have scored a low average of 0.91 goals per game.

Atlanta United are currently the team in the MLS in the worst run of form. United have failed to win in their last seven matches in the competition, and a fourth defeat over that period was registered in their previous fixture against Charlotte. Atlanta were poor in the final third in that fixture, as they scored just twice despite having six shots on target.

United have recorded just four victories in their 23 league matches this season, but all wins have been recorded at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Atlanta have scored a respectable tally of 1.75 goals per game in front of their own fans, which is significantly better than the 0.55 goals they have managed in away fixtures.

Head-to-Head Record

Atlanta United have a fine recent record against the Sounders, having won each of the last two head-to-head clashes. The most recent meeting between the sides came in August 2023, with United landing a 2-0 victory on the road. The Sounders haven’t recorded a win against Atlanta since July 2019.

Atlanta United vs. Seattle Sounders Picks

Despite having a poor head-to-head record against Atlanta, it is hard to overlook the chances of a Seattle win this weekend based on the recent form of both teams. The Sounders have been strong at both ends of the field, and they could be capable of winning this fixture to nil.
