Our Predictions
Seattle's navigation of their recent games suggests a disciplined defensive approach, supported by their solid home record. The tight head-to-head history and the low scoring trend make a narrow, low-goal home win the most sensible pick.
Both teams have shown resilience, especially in head-to-heads, yielding many tight matches. A draw with both sides netting seems fitting given their recent form and cautious tactics.
Seattle's home advantage and offensive strength could see them edging out Kansas City, especially if both teams take more risks for a win, leading to a slightly higher goal tally.
