Nicolás Lodeiro returns to Seattle as a visitor for the first time tonight. He’ll be facing a Sounders team that will be very interested in getting back on the winning track after a rough couple of weeks, but the Dynamo are possibly in even more need of a result.
A year after finishing fifth in the Western Conference and taking the Sounders to a pair of shootouts in their first-round playoff encounter, the Dynamo are winless through four games with just a single tie to show for their efforts.
The Sounders’ start hasn’t been quite as disastrous — they’re 1-2-1 — but they have a stretch of eight road games in their next 12 after this match and will be keen to pick up points at home.
- Lodeiro will be honored in a pregame ceremony, Jordan Morris will be recognized for setting the franchise record for all-time goals at halftime and Cristian Roldan will be acknowledged during warmups for becoming the all-time leader in appearances among field players.
- The Sounders come into this game holding a 13-0-4 all-time record at home against the Dynamo.
- The Sounders have only been shut out by the Dynamo once in 28 all-time regular-season meetings.
