Seattle Sounders Team Overview
Seattle Sounders lost their first match of the tournament away to Mexican side Toluca (0:3). The MLS club lost in possession (32% vs 68%), shots on target (2 vs 19) and corners (1 vs 12). It feels like the crisis in Seattle has dragged on for quite some time.
Seattle Sounders are going through a difficult run: the team has no wins in their previous seven matches and in five since the season resumed. Their average goals scored stands at just 0.8 per match. The defence is also unstable: conceding an average of 2.1 goals per game over the long run and five goals at once in their last home match. The trends confirm systemic difficulties: Seattle Sounders consistently score and concede at home almost every time, but rarely manage more than one goal.

⭐ Editor's Pick
The form of the two sides differs sharply: Seattle Sounders are going through a difficult run with minimal scoring even at home, while Querétaro are consistent in attack and make few mistakes at the back. However, the trend suggests that the hosts almost always exchange goals with their opponents - they both score and concede in 7 of their last 8 home matches. The visitors have the resources to find the net thanks to a higher average scoring rate over the season. The main prediction is both teams to score (yes). Predicted score - 1:1.
