Seattle Sounders v Vancouver Whitecaps Preview

Sounders Seek to Bounce Back against Title Chasing Whitecaps Always Welcome Guests Visit for the Penultimate Time Vancouver Whitecaps trail USL leaders Porto Rico by three points with a game in hand. That game is a Cascadia Cup encounter at Starfire this Wednesday with Northwest rivals Seattle Sounders. Unlike the rivalry with Portland, most Sounders fans look forward to friendly and sporting banter with their friends from the north and despite it being midweek, everyone concerned will welcome the appearance of a vociferous away support. There is one more visit for the Caps to Seattle on September 20th, but thereafter only a USL play off this year can guarantee another match. Vancouver Whitecaps are ineligible to enter the US Open Cup obviously due to being Canadian. Hopefully ways can be found to preserve this fixture though. Full story: Vancouver v Seattle August 20th
