We said: Vancouver Whitecaps 1-1 Seattle Sounders

The Sounders always seem to bounce back after a tough outing and have not lost consecutive matches all year, though they have not been quite as sharp over the past couple of weeks. Vancouver are at their best when playing at home and have not lost to a playoff team under the dome throughout the 2023 MLS campaign.
