MLS Week 10 – Preview, Picks and Predictions

Match of the weekend Sounders vs RSL will take place in Seattle, but don’t expect many goals there. If you looking for high scoring games, we should see some goals in Houston and San Jose. I picked Impact and Crew to get their home wins. I also believe that Union will give hard time to the Red Bulls at PPL Park, and I will not be shocked if Philadelphia finish with the win.
After perfect Wednesday and awesome 3-0 start into 10th week of my MLS Predictions. This weekend matched are tough and challenging to make prognosis, but with my picks below you should be able to end this week on positive note.

Top teams from the East clashing this Saturday with leaders from the West. MLS game of the week will take place in Kansas City where Sporting, the only team with perfect record this season, will face rock solid Real Salt Lake. Red hot Red Bulls hosting all the sudden consistent team from San Jose. There is nothing sure about soccer, but when Thierry Henry meets Chris Wondolowski, goals in this match are almost guarantee. However not everywhere will be as colorful. Other than Earthquakes visit at Red Bull Arena, on rest of the venues I am anticipating low scoring weekend, with Seattle Sounders, LA Galaxy and FC Dallas as my heavy favorites to win their matches.

MLS Week 3 Predictions

2011 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final Seattle Sounders FC vs Chicago Fire – Preview and Prediction

The Seattle Sounders play host to the 2011 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final on Tuesday night as they seek a historic win. A victory would give the club three consecutive Open Cup titles, something not accomplished since 1969 by Greek American out of New York (Stix, Baer and Fuller/St. Louis Central Breweries won three in a row from 1933 to 1935).
