SEATTLE, WASH. – Sounders FC (7-3-2, 23 points) returns home to the Emerald Queen Casino Pitch at Lumen Field tonight to take on Austin FC (2-5-4, 10 points). Seattle currently sits in first place in the Western Conference with 23 points through 12 matches, two points above LAFC, while Austin ranks 12th with 10 points through 11 matches.

Seattle has never lost to Austin FC since the latter joined MLS in 2021, playing to a 2-0-2 record and conceding one goal in those four matches.

The Rave Green are coming off a 1-0 win at Houston on Saturday that featured a goal from Tacoma Defiance midfielder Paul Rothrock, who was playing via a short-term agreement. It was Rothrock’s third goal in as many appearances for the First Team in all competitions, including a pair of tallies in Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup play.

Following Wednesday’s match, the Rave Green travel north to take on Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place on Saturday, May 20 (7:30 p.m. PT / Apple TV, iHeartMedia, El Rey 1360 AM).
