The Seattle Sounders will look to extend their unbeaten home run when they welcome an in-form San Diego FC to Lumen Field on Wednesday night.
Brian Schmetzer's men edged out FC Dallas 1-0 last time out, thanks to a coolly taken late penalty by Albert Rusnak. However, it was Stefan Frei who truly earned the points, pulling off five crucial saves to preserve the clean sheet and secure all three.
That hard-fought win lifted Seattle above rivals Portland Timbers on goal difference and into fifth in the Western Conference. They're now level on 23 points with fourth-place LAFC, and a comfortable six points clear of the Houston Dynamo in 10th.
Their midweek opponents, San Diego FC, arrive in the Pacific Northwest riding a wave of momentum. After hitting a rough patch in April with three straight defeats, Mikey Varas has guided his side to an impressive turnaround, racking up four wins and a draw in their last five outings.
San Diego's latest triumph came in thrilling fashion over the weekend. Trailing the LA Galaxy, they roared back at Snapdragon Stadium. Luca de la Torre hit back within a minute of conceding, before Mexican star Hirving Lozano sealed the comeback with a dramatic 95th-minute winner.

Seattle Sounders FC team news
Seattle Sounders will have to cope without defensive anchor Yeimar Gomez Andrade this week after the center-back was forced off just 16 minutes into the clash withFC Dallas due to injury.
In his absence, expect Jonathan Bell to step into the heart of the backline alongside Kim Kee-hee, with Alex Roldan and Nouhou Tolo expected to keep their spots out wide in Brian Schmetzer's defensive setup.
Up front, there’s uncertainty over Danny Musovski, who sat out the weekend win with a hip issue. If he doesn't pass fit, Jesus Ferreira should lead the line once again, supported by Albert Rusnak pulling strings just behind him.
San Diego FC team news
As for San Diego FC, they'll be without right-back Willy Kumado, who limped off shortly after the break against LA Galaxy. That likely opens the door for promising 18-year-old Oscar Verhoeven to earn a start on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, fitness concerns remain over left-back Hamady Diop, who has missed the past two fixtures. In his stead, Luca Bombino is expected to retain his place in Mikey Varas's starting eleven.
