SEATTLE, WASH. - After falling 1-0 to San Jose for its second loss in a row, marking the club's first consecutive defeats since 2019, Seattle Sounders FC hosts FC Dallas on Wednesday, August 4 (7:00 p.m. PT / JOEtv, Prime Video, 950 KJR AM, El Rey 1360 AM).

Fresh off the U.S. Men's National Team's championship in the 2021 Concacaf Gold Cup tournament, Cristian Roldan returns to the club this week, having not played for the Rave Green since a 1-1 draw at Colorado on July 4.

Sounders FC forward Raúl Ruidíaz's 11 goals this season currently rank first in MLS, while João Paulo leads the club with five assists. Defender Yeimar Gómez Andrade leads the league with 51 interceptions, spearheading a defensive effort that is tied for first in MLS with seven shutouts.
