Austin FC will be hoping to end their three-match MLS losing streak when they host Seattle Sounders at Q2 Stadium. The Verde & Black head into the season restart in better spirits after defeating Sporting Jax in a recent warm-up fixture, but league form remains a concern. Austin have collected just 0.80 points per game from their last ten matches in all competitions, conceding 2.40 goals per game over that period. Their home performances have been more encouraging, though, with two wins from the last four matches and only one goal conceded on average at Q2 Stadium. Myrto Uzuni and Brendan Hines-Ike are both doubts for Thursday's encounter, leaving the hosts with selection concerns at both ends of the pitch.
Seattle Sounders, meanwhile, are also desperate to get back on track after suffering three consecutive MLS defeats, including a crushing 5-1 loss to Portland Timbers at the weekend. Brian Schmetzer's side have struggled badly away from home of late, failing to win any of their last three road matches while scoring just one goal in total. Injuries could further complicate matters, with Petkovic and Pedro de la Vega ruled out, while Yeimar Gomez Andrade and Kim Kee-Hee face late fitness tests. Despite dominating this fixture historically with five wins from the previous nine meetings, Seattle's current form makes this a much more balanced contest than the head-to-head record suggests.
As six of the previous nine meetings produced two goals or fewer, we are tempted to bet on Under 2.5 goals. Additionally, Half-Time Draw and Draw bets seem appealing.
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 23 July 2026 at 01:30.
