Seattle will be hoping to bounce back from defeat as they travel to face out-of-form FC Dallas on Saturday.
Dallas (5-6-3) are winless in six games with two ties and four losses after their 2-1 defeat at BC Place against the Vancouver Whitecaps.
They come into the game sitting seventh in the West with 18 points.
Seattle (7-2-5) are third in the West with 26 points and suffered their first loss in six games last weekend when they were defeated 3-2 by Sporting Kansas City.
The Sounders have traveled to Dallas 13 times, winning just three of those trips. In 2018 they met twice; the Sounders won 2-1 at home while Dallas won 3-0 at Toyota Stadium.
Sebastian Mosquera is out injured for Dallas, Matt Hedges is back from suspension, Bryan Acosta and Jesse Gonzalez are both a yellow card away from suspension, and Edwin Cerrillo, Brandon Servania, and Paxton Pomykal are away at the U20 World Cup.
Jordan Morris and Victor Rodriguez are out with hamstring injuries while Gustav Svensson returned to the bench in Kansas. Nicolas Lodeiro is missing with a suspension due to yellow card accumulation.
Kickoff is at 8 p.m. EST. on Saturday evening at Toyota Stadium. The game will be shown in Canada on DAZN, and in the U.S. on Texas21, JOEtv, and YouTubeTV in the Seattle region.
