Seattle Sounders FC 2 news and notes
- Current record: 0-2-0, 0 points
- S2 has suffered defeat in each of its first two games, and has also yet to find the net this season. Arizona United SC took a 2-0 win at Starfire Stadium on Wednesday night in the most recent contest.
- Ezra Hendrickson’s side lost only three times at home a season ago on the way to a place in the USL Playoffs. Another defeat would equal that total this season.
- S2 has been outshot 21-16 in its opening two games, with visitors also holding an 8-3 edge in shots on goal.
- The side will welcome the return of Myron Samuel and potentially Oalex Anderson as both return from World Cup Qualifying with St. Vincent & the Grenadines.
