We said: Austin FC 1-2 Seattle Sounders

Austin were so close to scrapping a point at Dallas last time out before an added-time winner for the Hoops, and you question whether Los Verdes will be able to bounce back quickly from that disappointment. Seattle ended their losing streak at Minnesota on the weekend, and we are backing them to earn their first victory in any form since July 9 at Q2 Stadium in Texas.
