Daily sports news cheat sheets for people who need to talk sports
The marquee matchup tonight is Seattle Sounders FC traveling to face LAFC at BMO Stadium, two of the West's stronger sides with the Sounders sitting a point ahead on form at 7-3-2 — expect a tight, physical game with LAFC installed as narrow favorites and the over-under sitting at just 2.5, so neither side figures to gift a sitter. Earlier in the evening, Inter Miami CF host a Philadelphia Union side that has been genuinely shambolic on the road this year, going 1-4-9 and looking short on ideas up top, so Miami should be able to keep a clean sheet if they stay organized.
If you watch one game, make it the late kick on the West Coast — both squads can find the net in bunches and the Sounders have the legs to press LAFC into mistakes.
