Seattle limps in to Dallas battered an bruised after a falling to CD Chivas de Guadalajara on Wednesday. The Sounders already dealing with a rash of injuries added 2 more with Will Bruin and Chad Marshall both being injured in the 1st half of the match against Chivas. Marshall with a eye injury. Bruin with a possible concussion. Chad Marshall might be available depending on the swelling but unlikely. Meanwhile Will Bruin will be under concussion protocol.
Its been a uneven start to the season for the Sounders 2 wins and 3 losses. 2-1 at home 0-2 on the road.
With Jordan Morris and Osvaldo Alonso both out. Nico Loderio, Victor Rodriguez, Will Bruin and Chad Marshall all questionable for today’s match.
Schmetzer faces some interesting lineup decisions.
Frei- Leerdam, Torres, Kim, Nouhou, -Roldan, Svennson, – Wolff Eikram, Bwana, Neagle, – Dempsey.
FC Dalas facing some injury concerns themselves with US international Kellyn Acosta, Anton Nedyalkov and Brandon Servania all out. Dallas having a slow start themselves will lok to get their first win of the MLS season at home. They were already knocked out of the CCL by Tauro FC of Panama.
Jimmy Maurer- Reggie Cannon, Matt Hedges, Reto Ziegler, Maynor Figueroa – Carlos Gruezo, Victor Ulloa – Michael Barrios, Mauro Diaz, Santiago Mosquera – Maxi Urruti.
The game kicks of in Frisco Texas at 2:00 pdt. Should be a interesting match with both teams trying to pick up their first win in league play.
