The Seattle Sounders defeated Minnesota United 3-1 at Lumen Field, extending their unbeaten streak to seven games. With this victory, Schmetzer's team currently holds the final play-in spot in the Western Conference and will be heavy favorites when they face Sporting Kansas City, the bottom-ranked team in their conference.
Seattle opened the scoring against Minnesota United with an exquisitely timed cross from Rusnak, followed by an equally impressive finish from Morris. The Sounders' second goal came from a corner kick; Morris headed the ball, the goalkeeper made the initial save, but Dotson was there to tap in the rebound. The third goal came from a counter-attack with open space. Arriola scored the goal in a performance that left fans wondering if the team had rediscovered its best form.
Meanwhile, Sporting Kansas City suffered an unusual stumble, losing 2-0 to the Houston Dynamo. This was the first time this season, which is now in its final stretch, that Minnesota kept a clean sheet.

Our Seattle Sounders vs Sporting Kansas City Prediction
The Seattle Sounders' injury list has decreased somewhat, and this has contributed to their evident improvement game by game. In their last two victories, Slovakian midfielder Albert Rusnák's decisive performance was crucial for Seattle; he already has four assists in less than 30 days.
It doesn't look like it will be an easy match for Kansas City, especially considering they will arrive with the worst defense in MLS, having conceded 63 goals in 26 matches this season.
Our prediction for Seattle Sounders vs Sporting Kansas City is: Seattle Sounders -1.5.
