Sounders vs. New York Red Bulls, live stream: Game time, TV schedule and lineups
LINEUPS: There were a handful of changes to the starting lineup from last week, but the big news is that Raúl Ruidíaz will be available off the bench for the first time since April 15.
The Seattle Sounders will be looking to start a three-game homestand by snapping a two-game losing streak. First up is the New York Red Bulls, who seem to have righted the ship since Troy Lesense took over as head coach from Gerard Stuber three games ago, going 2-0-1.
The Sounders should be a little healthier with Léo Chú and Nouhou both a week further removed from their injuries and Raúl Ruidíaz due to be available for the first time since April 15.
The Red Bulls are also coming off a midweek game against FC Cincinnati in the U.S. Open Cup that they lost in a penalty shootout in which they used several starters. They could get a boost, however, with the potential return of Lewis Morgan. The midfielder last played on March 11.
Notes
The home team has won the last six meetings in this matchup and the away team has not won since 2010, when both road teams won that year’s meetings. The last time a road team even got a point in this matchup was 2013, when the Red Bulls tied the Sounders in Seattle.
The Sounders are on a two-game home losing streak after going undefeated in their previous 10 across all competitions. The last time they lost three straight at home was from late 2010-early 2011.
Jordan Morris has not scored in eight straight matches, his longest goal-scoring drought since going 10 straight without a goal in 2017. He has put only three shots on frame during this run.
Four of the Red Bulls’ 10 goals scored have come off of corners.
This will be the first time the Sounders and Red Bulls have faced on another since 2019, a span of three years and 259 days. That’s the fourth-longest stretch between meetings of any two opponents in MLS history.
