2) Return of Clint Dempsey

3) International stars

Last season’s MLS Newcomer of the Year Nicolas Lodeiro returns, as does defender Roman Torres. Offseason acquisition Gustav Svensson also joins the list of foreign talent suiting up for Seattle this season.

4) Home record

The Sounders boasted a 10-5-2 record at home in MLS regular-season play last year and went 3-0 in the postseason. The Sounders are 78-29-25 all-time in MLS play at CenturyLink Field, and it continues to be one of the toughest places for opposing teams to earn results.

5) Be a part of the best atmosphere in MLS

The Sounders averaged more than 42,000 fans per game last season, nearly11,000 more than the next closest team. From “March to the Match” to “Scarves Up” to “Boom Boom Clap,” there’s nothing like experiencing a Sounders game in person.

If single-match tickets are not enough, there are nine-game flex, half season and full season options still available. We'll see you soon at CenturyLink Field!
