Although they\u2019ve had some notable postseason wins at BMO Stadium, they\u2019ve never actually won a regular-season game there. In fact, they\u2019ve claimed just a single point in their nine previous trips.<\/p>\n<p>If LAFC has ever looked vulnerable, it\u2019s now. They come into this game having lost three straight league games, four straight overall and are just 2\u20136\u20133 since starting the season on an 11-game unbeaten run. On top of that, they\u2019ll be missing several potential starters, most notably goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.<\/p>\n<p>The Sounders aren\u2019t exactly on a hot run themselves, though. Since starting the season 6\u20131\u20131 in league play, they\u2019ve gone 1\u20131\u20132 in their last four. That includes a disappointing home loss to the LA Galaxy last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>This will be the Sounders\u2019 first match against LAFC this year after splitting their two meetings a year ago.The Sounders are still tied for the fewest goals allowed in MLS (10) but have allowed at least one in each of their past six league games.Brian Schmetzer currently has 148 career regular-season wins. He would be just the ninth coach in MLS history to reach 150.This will be the final match before an eight-week break for the World Cup. It\u2019s the longest midseason break in MLS history.Absences: Injury, international duty and suspensionSounders<\/p>\n<p>OUT: Pedro de la Vega \u2014 Knee; Nikola Petkovi\u0107 \u2014 Knee; Yeimar G\u00f3mez Andrade \u2014 Hamstring<\/p>\n<p>QUESTIONABLE: Paul Arriola \u2014 Adductor; Alex Roldan \u2014 Hamstring<\/p>\n<p>LAFC<\/p>\n<p>OUT: Igor Jesus \u2014 Leg; Hugo Lloris \u2014 Leg; Sergi Palencia \u2014 Leg; Jacob Shaffelburg \u2014 Leg<\/p>\n<p>Sounders: WDDWL<br \/>LAFC: WDLLL<\/p>\n<p>Kit matchup<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bafkreibkkqxtsmw35vnpdfzsjqxfdhd54oie7p4z4soubbjtzjoydj7czq-1.webp\" class=\"kg-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1658\" height=\"598\"  \/>Officials<\/p>\n<p>REF: Ramy Touchan; AR1: Chris Elliott; AR2: Tyler Wyrostek; 4TH: Elijio Arreguin; VAR: Lukasz Szpala; AVAR: Rhett Hammil<\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/tv.apple.com\/channel\/tvs.sbd.7000?itscg=30200&amp;itsct=tv_box_badge&amp;at=1010l3bek&amp;ct=SaH25&amp;ref=sounderatheart.com\" style=\"display: inline-block;\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/toolbox.marketingtools.apple.com\/api\/v2\/badges\/watch-on-apple-tv\/badge\/en-us\" alt=\"Watch on Apple TV\" style=\"border-radius: 13px; width: 250px; height: 83px;\"\/><br \/>\n    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>How to Watch<\/p>\n<p>Match date\/kickoff time: Sunday, May 24, 6:25 PM PT<\/p>\n<p>Venue: BMO Stadium, Los Angeles <\/p>\n<p>Global Streaming English: AppleTV (Max Bretos &amp; Brian Dunseth)<\/p>\n<p>Global Streaming Spanish: AppleTV (Pablo Ramirez &amp; Jes\u00fas Bracamontes)<\/p>\n<p>English TV: Fox (John Strong &amp; Stu Holden)<\/p>\n<p>Local Radio: 93.3 KJR-FM Seattle, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iheart.com\/live\/seattle-sounders-fc-radio-9352\/?ref=sounderatheart.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">iHeartMedia<\/a> (Danny Jackson &amp; Steve Zakuani)<\/p>\n<p>Local Spanish Radio: El Rey 1360 AM (Rodriguez, Maqueda, Tapia)<\/p>\n<p>Is this game available to stream for free?
