Sporting Kansas City aims for season sweep, keep playoff hopes alive in trip to Lumen Field to face Sounders
Sitting 11 points out of the playoffs with five matches to play, Sporting Kansas City heads to the Pacific Northwest today in search of its first away win since July as Seattle Sounders FC look to snap a two-match losing skid to the visitors. Sporting has defeated Seattle in consecutive matches by identical 2-1 scoreline in the last two meetings including the last time these teams faced off on Lumen Field in July of 2023. Seattle comes into this match three points clear of the playoff cut line off a 4-0 thrashing of Columbus last Saturday but has lost back-to-back matches on its home turf dropping a Leagues Cup match and a US Open Cup match to Los Angeles FC in an 11-day span.
