1-2 to Seattle Sounders
Our chief Charlotte vs Seattle Sounders prediction has a solid chance of success considering the fact that Charlotte have seen upsets galore in the 2023 Major League Soccer campaign. Sure, the team is doing fine now but the beginning of it all was dreadful.
We have our doubts about coach Lattanzio’s chances to take sweet revenge over Seattle Sounders for the 2-1 loss that was registered last season. The match was played at Lumen Field, and yes, the home-field support might have played a role in the final score but we still consider the visitors the far better of the two teams ahead of Sunday’s clash. It’s no mystery why coach Schmetzer’s team is currently in 2nd place. The visitors have been playing at their lethal best throughout the season and a 1-2 victory over poor Charlotte shouldn’t raise any eyebrows.
Over 3.5 Bookings
One thing is certain, Charlotte’s players won’t get starstruck by Seattle Sounders’ stars. They won’t go easy on them as we expect to see the ref reach to his pocket on multiple occasions at Bank of America Stadium.
Our second Charlotte vs Seattle Sounders prediction is one that is against all that’s good and holy in soccer – over 3.5 bookings. The only two MLS teams with more bookings than Christian Lattanzio’s side are New York Red Bulls (50) and Chicago Fire (49). However, with 44 yellow cards, Charlotte are a close 3rd. The only good news is that coach Lattanzio’s boys haven’t yet received a direct red in one of their games.

Charlotte vs Seattle Sounders Lineups & Team News
Charlotte
New kid on the block Charlotte will do their very best to cause an upset on Sunday but, as you saw from our Charlotte vs Seattle Sounders predictions, nothing of the sort is expected. First of all, Charlotte lost their last home game at Bank of America Stadium. The match against Nashville ended 1-2 in favor of coach Gary Smith’s boys, and as much as we contemplated predicting a draw, we just can’t ignore the sheer class difference between the two sides.
Predicted lineup – Kahlina (GK), Afful, Tuiloma, Sobocinski, Byrne, Jones, Bronico, Westwood, Meram, Vargas & Swiderski
Seattle Sounders
The only club higher than Seattle Sounders in Major League Soccer’s Western Conference is newly established St. Louis City. Coach Carnell’s boys are at the top of the table but old fox Schmetzer won’t go down without a fight. With Jordan Morris and Heber among the starters, Seattle Sounders’ strike force is a thunderous one and we can’t wait for the kick-off.
Predicted lineup – Frei (GK), Tolo, Gomez, Ragen, Roldan, Paulo, Rusnak, Chu, Lodeiro, Teves & Heber
Player to Watch: Jordan Morris
Who else? Coach Schmetzer was contemplating changes to his starting XI at the beginning of the season but after he saw how fierce Jordan Morris is, he swiftly threw his initial plans out the window.
With nine goals to his name in the 2023 Major League Soccer campaign, Jordan Morris is currently the 3rd-best finisher in the league. The only two to outscore him are Nashville’s Hany Mukhtar who slid it past the goalkeepers on 10 occasions and Los Angeles’ Denis Bouanga who also bagged 10.
However, we believe that the 28-year-old has yet to show his best side despite scoring four against Sporting Kansas City. It’s that sort of ingenuity that will work in favor of our Charlotte vs Seattle Sounders predictions.
