New England and Seattle Sounders meet in MLS at Gillette Stadium, with the hosts sitting 2nd in the table on 46 points from 27 matches, while the visitors are 7th with 38 points from the same number of games. Both still need points to lock down their playoff places, so this is not just a game for rotating players. New England lost 0-3 in their last match, but before that they put together wins in several consecutive games. Their attack has worked well all season. Seattle Sounders, meanwhile, arrive in clearly more confident shape, as they are unbeaten in their last five and won three in a row late on. The visitors' defence has tightened up a lot recently, while New England themselves have had problems conceding in moments when they lose control of the game. According to the expected line-ups, New England will likely set up in a 4-2-3-1 with Carles Gil de Pareja Vicent dictating the tempo in midfield and Wilson Harris as the main striker, while Seattle Sounders place Cristian Roldan and Albert Rusnak in midfield to slow down the hosts' game. This looks likely to be a match where neither side rushes to open up early, and the total goals in the game should be at a relatively low level.
