Nashville SC vs Seattle Sounders Prediction: A possible draw.

There are only two points to separate these two on the MLS table, as Seattle Sounders occupy 9th position with 46 points and Nashville SC is 10th with 44 points. Both sides are clearly in contention for a Playoff spot finish in their various conferences, so points are crucial to help achieve their aims.

Nashville will host Seattle Sounders at the Geodis Park for the first meeting this year and they would hope to be on the right end of the scoreline. They have beaten Nashville in their last 2 meetings in a row, can they make it 3 in 3?

Nashville SC

Nashville SC aren't exactly an "A Class" team at the moment and besides from the fact that they have beaten Seattle Sounders in their only 2 games against each other, there's no strong reason why they should win this game.

In their last 5 matches in the league, they have won only Sporting Kansas City, and then they played a draw against Inter Miami, Charlotte FC and San Jose Earthquakes and lost against Atlanta.

Their last game ended in a 1-1 draw with San Jose Earthquakes and Teal Bunbury's opener for Nashville SC was chopped off in the 74th minute by Matthew Hoppe's equalizer.

Nashville SC sit comfortably in 7th spot with 47 points from 29 matches in the Eastern Conference. CF Montreal follows behind in 8th spot with 37 points.

Streaks

• No losses in 4 games
• Less than 2.5 goals in 5/7 games.

Seattle Sounders

Seattle Sounders are coming off a 2-1 win against Colorado Rapids in their last match. Leo Chu and Albert Rusnak were both on target in that game to give Seattle the win. Wins have not come easy for Seattle over the last few games they have played in. They managed to win only 2 of their last 5 league games, playing a draw in the other 3.

Seattle Sounders will go to Geodis Park in an effort to pick up their very first win over Nashville SC. Seattle Sounders lost both legs against Nashville SC last season and they will be hoping to break the jinx. Their away form tells them they can, with their last 4 away games ending in 2 wins and 2 draws.

Seattle are the 3rd best team in the western conference, having 45 points from 30 matches.

Streaks

• No losses in 5 games.
• No clean sheet in 11 games.
• Both teams scored in 5/5 games.
• First to score in 4/5 games
• Less than 4.5 cards in 6/7 games.

Head to Head

Nashville SC won both matches against Seattle Sounders in the past.

Analysis and Predictions

Nashville SC has the record in their favor. But I wouldn't write off Seattle Sounders just yet. Nashville have beaten Seattle Sounders in the past by narrow margins and that shows how close both teams are in terms of quality. The current state of both teams points to a very tight draw between these teams at the end of 90 minutes. And they both don't like to score plenty of goals. So we don't expect to see more than 2 goals in this game.
