New York City Seattle Sounders betting prediction

The away team comes to this 2nd leg match with an advantage of 2 goals, but has suffered 1 goal at home in the 1st leg. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 21 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 26 goals scored and 13 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Sounders has won 2, tied 5 and lost 3. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

The Seattle Sounders have a comfortable lead in this match and can even lose the match by one goal to secure qualification, however, the team does not intend to give chances to their opponents. The Washington Sounders will keep a high-tempo approach to the match to prevent New York City from getting into their stride, and will also need to be vigilant at the back to keep their opponents at bay. Up front, a fast attack, moving up the flanks, could be the key to opening up the opposition defence and allowing the team to get into the box to look for the finish.

Confirmed Lineup: Stefan Frei, Jackson Ragen, Nouhou Tolo, Alexander Roldan, Xavier Arreaga, João Paulo, Cristian Roldán, Nicolás Lodeiro, Albert Rusnák, Raúl Ruidíaz, Jordan Morris.
Coach: B. Schmetzer.
