Vancouver Whitecaps vs Seattle Sounders prediction: Tight clash between two equals ahead
Key Stats
- Seattle Sounders had the best backline in the Western Conference last season.
- Daniel Rios has scored one goal for Vancouver Whitecaps this season already.
- Five of the last nine Vancouver Whitecaps vs Seattle Sounders head-to-heads resulted in under 2.5 goals.
Correct score prediction: Vancouver Whitecaps 1-1 Seattle Sounders
It is very likely that Vancouver Whitecaps will be able to avoid defeat on 9 June, as Seattle Sounders aren’t that good in their away games recently. Three of the last nine matches between the two clubs ended in ties, which is why we believe we will see a 1-1 tie at BC Place this week.

Brian White to score anytime seems like a good idea here, as the odds behind our favourite Vancouver Whitecaps vs Seattle Sounders prediction are priced at 5/2 (3.50). This means the Whitecaps’ backup striker has a 28.6% chance of finding the net.

Player to watch: Daniel Rios
In the absence of goalscorer-in-chief Brian White, it’s up to Daniel Rios to step up and be the difference for his club. So far, things haven’t been great for the former Chivas Guadalajara star, but we still believe he has the quality to make things happen for his new side.
Rios capped his first goal
As mentioned previously in our top Vancouver Whitecaps vs Seattle Sounders prediction, the Mexican striker has already scored for Vancouver. He will be on penalty duty for coach Sorensen, which does increase his chances of finding the net this week.
