Seattle v New England

Seattle Sounders vs New England Revolution Preview

Western Conference hosts, Seattle Sounders, will play a third home game on the trot in the MLS this weekend when they play host to Eastern Conference outfit, New England Revolution, at their Lumen Field with the hosts looking to post a fourth win in five games, while New England Revolution will be chasing a sixth win in seven games this weekend.

Previous wins on home turf at their Lumen Field against the likes of Minnesota United, Dallas and Chicago Fire will stand Seattle Sounders in good stead for this upcoming encounter as the hosts have collected nine points from a possible 12 on offer in their last four games overall, while the bigger picture shows Seattle have lost just twice in their last 12 matches.

Losses on the road at Real Salt Lake and Sporting Kansas have been more than outweighed by recording six wins within this period and with home advantage behind them once again this weekend, Brian Schmetzer's side look to have a decent chance of adding to their points tally in this clash.

Seattle Sounders have been particularly impressive on home turf as the hosts have slipped to just two defeats in their last 16 home games as well.

New England Revolution have also been amongst the wins lately in the MLS as the visitors have collected five wins out of their last six matches overall and being handed just the single defeat within this impressive period of results.

That singular loss came in the form of a heavy 5-1 defeat at home to Columbus Crew but having also picked up important wins against Nashville, New York RB, Vancouver Whitecaps, Cincinnati and Atlanta United respectively, the visitors will also fancy their chances of achieving maximum points here at Lumen Field.

However, it should be noted that three of these five wins for New England Revolution were achieved on home turf at their Gillette Stadium, while the bigger picture shows the visitors have claimed just seven wins from their last 21 games overall in the MLS, slipping to no fewer than 13 losses within this period.

In addition, New England have registered just three wins in their previous 21 outings on the road which also consists of slumping to 13 defeats on their travels as well, so their form away from home indicates that the visitors may have their work cut out against a solid and well organised Seattle Sounders outfit in this encounter.

Seattle Sounders v New England Revolution Verdict

Seattle Sounders are unbeaten in their last six meetings on home turf against New England Revolution and having picked up three wins within this record as well, the hosts look to hold the slight edge heading into this upcoming clash.
