Prediction: 1-0
Seattle Sounders
DC United will look to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Orlando City and New York City when they face Seattle Sounders on Sunday morning. The capital club suffered a dip in form, with the team struggling at the back, but the bookies still see them as slim favourites to beat Seattle Sounders on home soil. Both Aaron Herrera and Mateusz Klich are back from suspension, while all Conner Antley, Garrison Tubbs, Theodore Ku-DiPietro, Russell Canouse, and Steve Birnbaum remain in the recovery room.
The Sounders, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Vancouver Whitecaps, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on DC United, who are a real force to be reckoned with at home. To make things even more complicated for the visiting side, defender Jackson Ragen misses out through suspension as well as midfielder Alex Roldan.
Highlighted Player (Christian Benteke):
Christian Benteke, born on 3th of December 1990 is a Belgian football player with roots from Congo. Benteke started his career at KRC Genk and after playing for Standard Liege, KV Mechelen, KV Kortrijk and Aston Villa the striker got transferred to Liverpool. Benteke is 191cm and is known for being a very strong goal scoring striker. In May 2010 Benteke made his debut for the Belgian national team.
Christian Benteke didn’t win any mayor prices yet. In the season 2008/2009 he won the national league of Belgium. Benteke is signed by Nike and got transferred to Liverpool for 46 million euro which makes him the second most expensive football player from Belgium. Benteke’s nickname is The Beast or Bentegoal.
Highlighted Team (Seattle Sounders):
Seattle Sounders are an American soccer club that compete in the Western Conference of Major League Soccer. The Sounders are owned by the likes of Joe Roth, Paul Allen, Drew Carey and Adrian Hanauer and they play their home games at CenturyLink Field.
The club won the 2016 MLS Cup, with the team beating Toronto FC on penalties in the trophy game at BMO Field. Swiss goalkeeper Stefan Frei won the MVP honor after pulling off several brilliant saves in the 2016 MLS Cup final.
Winning of the MLS Cup is undisputedly the club’s biggest success, but it has to be noted that the Sounders clinched the Supporters’ Shield trophy in 2014. Seattle hold rivalry with Portland Timbers, but Vancouver Whitecaps are regarded as the club’s bitter rivals as well.
Experienced attacker Clint Dempsey is undisputedly the club’s most significant star and he has been playing for the CenturyLink Field outfit since 2014. He scored eight goals in the league in the 2016 season and, no doubt, he helped the Sounders win their first ever MLS Cup.
