The Seattle Sounders will play their first league game at home in nearly two months when they host St. Louis today at 6:30 PM PT. The Sounders won the first meeting between these two teams, scoring a 1-0 victory in which they did a whole lot of defending.

Since that meeting, St. Louis City has done a better job of fulfilling Yoann Demet's vision. In the five matches they've played across all competitions, St. Louis City are 2-1-2 with their only loss coming on the road to LAFC. Over their last four matches, St. Louis have outscored their opponents 9-3, including road ties against New York City and FC Dallas.

The Sounders, though, have historically dominated this series, with a 6-1-0 record that includes a 3-0-0 mark at home. They are also coming off an impressive 3-1 win over UANL Tigres in Concacaf Champions Cup play and are off to a 4-1-1 start in league play.

Notes

This will be the Sounders' first league home game since the season opener against the Colorado Rapids on Feb. 22.
This will be the second of seven Sounders games played on grass at Lumen Field.
The Sounders have only averaged 1.0 goals per game in league play but have scored seven goals in their three home games, which includes two Concacaf Champions Cup matches.
