We said: Seattle Sounders 3-2 Atlanta United

Given that Atlanta United have been impressive on the front foot but quite poor defensively, we expect Saturday's game to be high-scoring, with the hosts just about coming out on top. Neither side performed well in the Leagues Cup, but Seattle Sounders were in better form prior to the MLS season being paused, and they should be able to pick up all three points on home soil.
