Seattle Sounders vs. FC Dallas, MLS playoffs 2015: Time, TV schedule and live stream

Poised to return to the Western Conference Finals for a third time in four years, the Seattle Sounders will need to take advantage of their goal advantage from the first leg of this aggregate score two-leg series. FC Dallas did get an away goal, so if they win 1-0 they advance. The nature of the away goal tiebreaker means that if Seattle scores two or more goals and loses by one they advance. Extra time can be reached with a 2-1 FCD win. The less complicated scenarios are that if there is a Sounders win or draw they get to take on a Cascadian opponent. If Dallas wins by two or more goals they move on.

With both sides having strong desires for multiple goals, the match should play wide open with a lot of action from the first whistle. The gamestate will dictate pace as the clock counts up.
