Recent form

Minnesota United

Minnesota United's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six games yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. The team has struggled defensively, conceding more goals (1.33 per game) than they've scored (1.17 per game), resulting in a negative goal difference. However, they've managed to keep two clean sheets in this period, both coinciding with their victories. The majority of their recent matches (67%) have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards lower-scoring games. Their most recent victory in the Leagues Cup against Necaxa broke a two-game losing streak, potentially signaling a positive turn in form. The highest-scoring game in this period was their 3-2 loss to DC United, which was also their only match where more than three goals were scored.

Seattle Sounders

The Seattle Sounders have shown inconsistent form in their recent matches, alternating between wins and losses in their last six games. Their goal-scoring ability has been impressive, with a notable 4-0 victory against U.N.A.M. - Pumas in the Leagues Cup, contributing to their average of 1.67 goals scored per game. However, they've also struggled defensively, conceding the same number of goals as they've scored. The team has been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent matches featuring over 2.5 goals, including two 3-0 losses to Los Angeles FC. Despite their mixed results, the Sounders have managed to secure two clean sheets in this period. Their current 7th position in the league table with 37 points from 25 games suggests they are in a competitive mid-table position, but their recent form indicates room for improvement, particularly in defensive consistency.

Recent home/away form

Minnesota United

Minnesota United's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with a noticeable improvement in their last two matches. After a challenging stretch of three consecutive home losses, the team has rebounded with back-to-back wins, including a clean sheet in their most recent Major League Soccer match against San Jose Earthquakes. The three-game losing streak is worth noting, as it suggests a period of vulnerability at home. While their overall goal-scoring average of 1.17 goals per game is modest, they've managed to tighten up their defense in recent games, securing two clean sheets in their last six home matches. The 3-2 loss to DC United stands out as the highest-scoring game in this period, contributing to the fact that 33% of their recent home games have seen over 2.5 goals.

Seattle Sounders

The Seattle Sounders have shown mixed form in their recent away games, but there are some positive trends to note. They are currently on a three-game unbeaten streak away from home, winning their last two matches against Austin FC and Sacramento Republic. This streak follows a period of inconsistency where they alternated between wins, draws, and losses. The team has been involved in several high-scoring games, with four out of the six matches seeing over 2.5 goals scored. Notably, their away games have been fairly balanced in terms of goals, with the Sounders scoring and conceding at an average of 1.33 goals per game. Their ability to find the net consistently is evident, as they've scored in five out of these six away matches, demonstrating their offensive capabilities on the road.
