Seattle (0-1-1) is two matches into its MLS slate and in both games the defense has cost the team an outright win. In the league opener against Charlotte FC last month, botched play between center backs Jackson Ragen and Yeimar led to the latter conceding a second-half equalizer for a 2-2 draw.

Salt Lake endured a second consecutive opening-day setback, falling 4-0 at San Jose in a repeat of last season's struggles, when they began with a 2-0 defeat at Inter Miami before securing their first win on matchday three — their maiden home league fixture of 2024.

After a humbling early exit in the CONCACAF Champions Cup at the hands of Herediano, Real Salt Lake looks to hit the reset button ahead of their 2025 MLS regular season opener against the Seattle Sounders.
