PREVIOUS MEETING: The Sounders and Nashville met for the first time in their history on the opening matchday of the 2022 season, with Nashville securing a 1-0 victory at Lumen Field. AnÃbal Godoy scored a late 80th-minute winner for the visitors.
REBOUND OPPORTUNITY: Seattle will look to quickly put its 3-0 home loss to the rival Portland Timbers last Saturday behind it as the club travels to the Midwest for a two-match road swing at Nashville and Chicago this week.
RAGEN SUSPENDED: The Sounders will be a little shorthanded at center back on Wednesday, as rookie Jackson Ragen will be suspended following his red card over the weekend. Xavier Arreaga is also continuing to recover from a hamstring injury.
NO PLACE LIKE HOME?: Nashville started the season on an eight-match road trip while awaiting the opening of GEODIS Park. Since then, however, they’ve only won twice, going 2-4-1 in their first seven games.

THE HANY SHOW: Everything Nashville does runs through playmaker Hany Mukhtar. The 2021 MLS Best XI selection and MLS MVP finalist has 10 goals and five assists in 19 matches and is the heart and soul of their attack.
USMNT BATTLE: Sounders wingers Jordan Morris and Cristian Roldan have had a tremendous 2022 so far marauding up and down the flanks. The man charged with keeping them off the score sheet on Wednesday is friend and fellow United States national team center back Walker Zimmerman, who is coming off back-to-back MLS Defender of the Year honors.
