Match context
- Form
- San Diego DDDLD: 3-3 v Houston, 2-2 at LA Galaxy, 2-2 at Miami but 4-1 loss at RBNY — goals at both ends. Seattle WDWD: 3-0 at New England, 0-1 at Dallas, 1-1 v Montreal, 0-0 v RBNY — tighter, lower scoring.
- History
- All four prior meetings are MLS regular-season games, three in 2025 (San Diego's inaugural season) and one in 2026, so the sample is short and young. San Diego FC 3-0 Seattle (5 Apr 2025, Snapdragon; HT 3-0) is the only meeting decided by more than one goal; Seattle won 1-0 at home (28 May 2025, HT 0-0), and the two 2026 games so far: 1-1 at Lumen Field (9 May 2026, San Diego led 1-0 at the break). Overall 1 win each, 1 draw, 4 goals for San Diego vs 2 for Seattle — low-scoring, tight, no side…
- The competition
- MLS 2026 (31st season), USA/Canada national top flight — closing weeks of the regular season (Round 30-ish). Seattle sit 7th in the Western Conference on 42 pts from 30 games (11-9-10, 39 GF/37 GA), inside the playoff line and fighting to hold a top-7 spot/improve seeding; San Diego FC are 12th on 34 pts (8-10-12, 53 GF/56 GA), below the playoff line with only a few games left, effectively must-win to keep faint hopes alive. Ordinary league round, no cup element.
