We said: Vancouver Whitecaps 2-2 Seattle Sounders

Having ended a five-game winless run last time out, Seattle will be determined to pick up another positive result this weekend, but Vancouver look set to give the Sounders a run for their money. Given that Vancouver have netted 22 goals across their previous 10 MLS outings, we expect the Whitecaps to instigate a high-scoring encounter on Saturday, although the points will likely be shared.
