Seattle has failed to win five of its last six matches against the Rapids (D2 L3), including a 1-0 loss on May 22. The Sounders only failed to win five of its previous 25 matches against the Rapids in MLS (W20 D1 L4, including playoffs) dating back to July 2010.
Seattle has lost three straight matches for the second time this season after not suffering a three-game losing streak since May-June 2019. The Sounders have suffered only two regular season losing streaks of four or more matches in the club’s MLS history, losing five straight in 2015 and four straight in 2013.
The Rapids ended a six-match winless run (D3 L3) with a 2-0 win over the Galaxy on Saturday, Colorado’s sixth win of the season. All six of the Rapids’ MLS wins this season have come at home as they’re one of two teams, along with Toronto, without a road win in 2022 (D3 L6).
The Sounders have failed to score in all three of their matches during their current losing streak, the first time they’ve gone three straight regular season matches without a goal since May-June 2018. Seattle has played four straight regular season games without a goal only once, in July-August 2015.
Jonathan Lewis set up both Rapids goals in their 2-0 win over the Galaxy on Saturday, his first two assists of the season. It was the first time Lewis recorded multiple assists in an MLS match in his career (115th match incl. playoffs).
