How to watch today's Seattle Sounders vs LA Galaxy MLS game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

The 2025 MLS regular season rolls on this weekend as the LA Galaxy head north to face Seattle Sounders FC at Lumen Field on Saturday, September 13.

The Galaxy sit at the foot of the Western Conference, clinging to the slimmest of postseason hopes. With six matches left, they trail San Jose Earthquakes by 15 points, meaning their path to the playoffs would require nothing short of a miracle—and a helping hand from results elsewhere. Still, Greg Vanney's side has shown some fight of late, going unbeaten in their last two league outings (W1, D1), including a stoppage-time equalizer to earn a 1-1 draw with Houston Dynamo.

History, however, doesn't favor LA in this matchup. They’ve already squared off against the Sounders twice this year, falling 4-0 in MLS play and 2-0 in the Leagues Cup semifinal. Vanney has underlined that defensive discipline will be key if they’re to avoid a repeat.

Seattle, meanwhile, enter the clash in red-hot form. Since their last league fixture, Brian Schmetzer's men lifted the Leagues Cup with a resounding 3-0 victory over Inter Miami, extending their winning streak across all competitions to three. Now sitting fourth in the West, the Sounders look well-poised to finish strong.

Seattle Sounders FC team news

Schmetzer has more good news to juggle, with Albert Rusnak and Jordan Morris both back from injury. Whether they're thrust straight into the XI or eased in from the bench remains to be seen, but their availability gives Seattle an extra spark heading into the run-in.

LA Galaxy team news

For the Galaxy, the absence of their midfield metronome continues to loom large. Riqui Puig has yet to feature in 2025 as he works his way back from a torn ACL, leaving LA without their creative heartbeat all year.

Lucas Sanabria came up clutch at the weekend, striking deep into stoppage time with a 99th-minute equalizer against Houston Dynamo, just his second goal of the season.
