Lets face reality. The Seattle Sounders are a better team then the LA Galaxy. Of course the Sounders season record do not confirm that conviction, but their play and style certainly says so. If the Sounders can pull off a victory today against LA they can walk away with the bragging rights of taking down a undefeated MLS team.
Needless to say, It would be very disappointing to see a loss today. Looking at last years stats against LA, which hasn’t changed much from last year besides Edson Buddle is actually scoring massive amounts of goals, the Sounders are undefeated and have proven they have the talent to dominate this LA Galaxy team.

If the Sounders can shut down Buddle and finally convert on their scoring opportunities, this should be a classic win. It will be interesting to see if Sigi goes with a 4-3-3 or a 4-4-2 lineup against LA. I was extremely excited to see the 4-3-3 last week, as I was hoping for to see Steve Zakuani in the front line somehow. Zakuani is our hot goal scorer at the moment, so if we can get him up top, our scoring should increase.
Whichever formation Sigi goes, with this should be a great match. See ya out there! GO SOUNDERS!
