Seattle Sounders team news and form: Sounders need to bounce back
Yes, the Sounders lost to St. Louis City last week, but in all fairness, the visitors at CITYPARK deserved to get at least a point. After all, they produced 15 shots at target in 90 minutes of play and looked like the better of the two teams on the pitch.

Player to watch: Jordan Morris
Morris of Seattle Sounders has scored three goals so far this season. We expect to see him at his very best at Lumen Field on the 23rd of March, as coach Schmetzer desperately needs a difference-maker.
Second player to watch: Ezequiel Ponce
Houston Dynamo’s men in charge had to pay a massive €9.0m transfer fee for Ezequiel Ponce’s services. Sure, the striker has only one goal and an assist this season, but we are confident there’s much more to come from him. Hopefully, he will blank on the 23rd of March so that our key Seattle Sounders vs Houston Dynamo prediction can succeed.
