The Seattle Sounders head back on the road to face the LA Galaxy, a team that is in a very similar place. The Sounders are still trying to snap their winless run, which has now reached 11 straight, but have picked up ties in each of their past three games.
The Galaxy are one spot ahead of the Sounders in the standings, but have also played two more games. They’ve gone just 2–5–4 in their last 11 matches.
The Galaxy could get a bit of a boost from the return of Joao Klaus, who is expected to at leat be available for the first time since April 18. He had started the season with five goals in his first eight matches.
- The Sounders are 13–5–9 against the Galaxy since Brian Schmetzer took over in 2016. That includes a record of 7–2–3 at Dignity Health Sports Park.
- Schmetzer remains stuck on 148 career MLS wins as he tries to become just the ninth coach in history to win 150 league games.
- Dejan Joveljić played for the Galaxy from 2021–2024 and has scored three goals in four games against his previous team.
