Draw or St Louis City
Our primary Seattle Sounders vs St Louis City prediction may seem like a gamble to some degree but hear us out. Yes, Seattle Sounders are the more prolific US team but St. Louis City have the momentum behind them.
With five back-to-back victories and only one loss in six official MLS games, the newly established team is doing tremendously well in its premier season. Seattle Sounders will have to produce top-notch stuff at Lumen Field on Sunday if they are to down St. Louis City.
However, their last clash at home was hardly impressive as they couldn’t score a single goal. And that’s not something you want when you’re about to face a packed defensive line such as St. Louis City’s.
Under 3.5 Bookings
Say what you want about Seattle Sounders’ aggressiveness this season but coach Brian Schmeltzer’s boys sure know how to avoid getting penalized for their challenges. With 11 bookings in six official MLS games, Seattle Sounders are one of the least booked teams in the league. The only four to get booked on fewer occasions are New England, Austin, Sporting Kansas City, and Real Salt Lake City.
Furthermore, our Seattle Sounders vs St. Louis City prediction is backed up by the absence of plenty of bookings in Seattle Sounders’ first couple of games.

Seattle Sounders vs St Louis City Lineups & Team News
Seattle Sounders
The Rave Green are eager to get the ball rolling on Sunday as they’ll try to knock St. Louis City off their pedestal. The visitors are at the top of the table in the Western Conference but their two-point lead is within arms’ reach of Seattle Sounders and we’re sure that the match on Sunday isn’t going to go according to Brian Schmetzer’s plans.
Predicted lineup – Frei (GK), Tolo, Ragen, Gomez, A. Roldan, Paulo, Rusnak, Chu, Lodeiro, C. Roldan & Morris
St Louis City
Bradley Carnell’s winning march came to an abrupt end on matchday six when Minnesota United paid them a visit. The thrifty 0-1 victory for Minnesota has undoubtedly hurt Carnell but the 46-year-old manager is aware this loss was a fluke as his boys had the game under complete control.
Predicted lineup – Burki (GK), Nelson, Parker, Hiebert, Nerwinski, Ostrak, Vassilev, Lowen, Stroud, Gioacchini & Klauss

Player to Watch: Joao Klauss
There are plenty of good options for the player to watch but Joao Klauss is our favorite one. St. Louis City’s goalscorer-in-chief has bagged five goals this season – 33.33% of all St. Louis City goals. Furthermore, he also gave one assist so he knows a thing or two about the creative process as well. Surely, Joao Klauss is a key part of this Seattle Sounders vs St. Louis City prediction.
