- Atlanta United have gone seven straight MLS matches without a win

- Sounders have the edge in corners won: 5.27 to Atlanta’s 5.25
Atlanta United just can’t seem to catch a break. Despite an energetic showing against Charlotte last Saturday, they came up short again falling 3-2 after giving up three soft goals. It’s been a frustrating run for Ronny Deila, whose squad is now winless in seven straight MLS matches. The Norwegian coach didn’t hold back post-match, calling his team “soft” and lacking “character.” Ouch. That said, Atlanta have at least shown fight at home, drawing three of their last four at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. And history’s on their side too, they’ve never lost to Seattle on home turf.
But let’s be real: this defense is leaky. They’ve shipped multiple goals in four consecutive home matches, and even when they score first, the lead rarely sticks. Case in point four times this season they’ve taken the lead and failed to win. The attack isn’t the issue, though. Latte Lath and Muyumba continue to create chances, and Bartosz Slisz is quietly stringing together a goal contribution streak at home. Still… something’s missing, steel, maybe? Or just belief.
Seattle, on the other hand, are riding a five-game unbeaten run and look like a team that’s finally settled into their groove. That 3-2 comeback win over San Jose showed grit, with Danny Musovski bagging a brace off the bench and Pedro de la Vega sealing the deal. The Sounders aren’t the defensive juggernaut of years past they’ve conceded 33 goals already but they’ve made up for it with timely scoring and control in midfield. Their away form still needs work, though, just three road wins all season means they’ll need to dig deep in Atlanta.
One area where Seattle hold a slight edge? Corners. They average 5.27 won per match versus Atlanta’s 5.25 not huge, but consistent. And with both sides averaging over 10 total corners per game, the set-piece battle could be decisive. The Sounders are also conceding fewer corners (4.73) than the Five Stripes (5.25). It’s a tight matchup, but when it comes to MLS Predictions, this one may come down to who wins the small margins, like a few extra corner kicks.
Seattle Sounders hold a slight but meaningful edge when it comes to corners. They average 5.27 corners won per match compared to Atlanta United’s 5.25. That’s not a massive gap but consistency matters. The Sounders are also conceding fewer corners on average (4.73) than the Five Stripes (5.25), suggesting they exert more control and allow fewer set-piece opportunities. Atlanta’s defensive disorganization may also contribute to a more reactive style of play, leading to fewer offensive zones and chances to earn corners. Seattle’s recent form adds to the case they’re unbeaten in five MLS matches and producing a solid volume of attacking phases, even away from home. With Pedro de la Vega and Musovski in form, expect more pressure from wide areas, which typically generates corner kicks. Combine that with Atlanta’s ongoing defensive struggles, and it’s logical to expect Seattle to end up with a corner count advantage on Saturday.
