⭐ Editor's Pick
The current picture highlights a clear gap between these two sides, but the stats point toward a different angle - specifically the away team's individual goal total. Even with the worse recent run of the two and modest scoring numbers, Seattle Sounders almost always find the net or create real chances against teams like Toluca. The Mexicans, meanwhile, rarely keep a clean sheet at home. Main prediction: Seattle Sounders to score. Scoreline prediction: 2-1 to the home side.
