Why Bet on the Seattle Sounders?

After dominating Pumas with a resounding 4-0 victory, the Seattle Sounders secured a place in the quarterfinals of the Leagues Cup 2024. Their next opponent will be LAFC, and the match will occur at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington, USA.

There is no doubt that the Sounders know that they have the possibility of qualifying for the semifinals of the tournament in their hands. However, it is always a challenge to face an opponent as formidable as LAFC.

Before beating Pumas, Seattle crushed another Californian team, LA Galaxy, in the Round of 32 with an excellent score of 3-2.

Why Bet on LAFC?

On the other hand, after an emphatic 4-1 victory over the SJ Earthquakes in the Round of 16, LAFC appears to be on the back foot in this edition of the Leagues Cup. With the recent debut of star summer signing Olivier Giroud, France’s all-time leading scorer for the national team, a bigger role for him is anticipated in the upcoming match at Lumen Field on Saturday.

The Californian team has yet to play an away game in this tournament, which adds a layer of challenge to their upcoming trip to Cascadia. However, their previous visit to Seattle for an MLS match proved to be a resounding success, as they posted an excellent 3-0 victory.

LAFC is one of the best teams in the MLS Western Conference, and they will have to prove it in this all-important match against the Seattle Sounders.
