Last Game: Vancouver 1-2 Salt Lake

We said: Seattle Sounders 2-0 Real Salt Lake

The season is still young, but the Sounders look re-energised and primed to regain their status as an MLS powerhouse, showing poise along the backline in their opener with plenty of outstanding individual performances. While they reacted well when trailing last Saturday, Claret and Cobalt did not produce many scoring opportunities aside from a nice two-minute flurry against the Caps, and they will be facing a much more experienced and organised backline this weekend.
