Seattle Sounders - Form Analysis: A challenging start
The "Green" team was the second-best team in the Western Conference last regular season, although they didn't perform well in the playoffs. They've had a tough start this time: 2 draws and 3 losses. Yes, the club then crushed Montreal 5-0, but that was followed by only 1 point in the next three matches. It was only through a 3-2 victory against Philadelphia Union that they managed to climb off the bottom of the table.
