Seattle Sounders FC (7-3-5) at Philadelphia Union (2-4-10) — Match Preview
Seattle Sounders FC (7-3-5) travel to Subaru Park on July 25, 2026 to take on Philadelphia Union (2-4-10), pitting one of the Western Conference’s stronger sides against an Eastern Conference club still searching for its footing this season. Seattle sits 6th in Western Conference while Philadelphia sits 15th in Eastern Conference, a gap that lines up with the form both clubs carry into this one. Paul Rothrock leads the way for the Sounders with 5 goals in 14 appearances, and he gets help from Albert Rusnák, who has produced 3 goals and 5 assists across 14 matches as Seattle’s primary creator. Milan Iloski has been Philadelphia’s most productive attacker, scoring 8 goals in 16 appearances, well clear of Danley Jean Jacques and Indiana Vassilev, who have 2 apiece. Jesús Ferreira adds a second scoring outlet for Seattle with 3 assists in 15 appearances, while Frankie Westfield has chipped in 4 assists from the back four for a Union side that needs production wherever it can find it. Seattle’s balance across multiple attacking threats stands out against Philadelphia’s heavy reliance on Iloski up top.

Players to Watch: Seattle Sounders FC vs. Philadelphia Union
Seattle Sounders FC
Paul Rothrock — F. Rothrock leads Seattle with 5 goals from 14 appearances this season, doing the bulk of the scoring work up top for the Sounders. His finishing has been the constant for a Seattle side that has otherwise spread its scoring across the midfield, and he enters this one as the most direct scoring threat on the field at Subaru Park.
Albert Rusnák — M. Rusnák is doing more than any other Sounder to unlock defenses, with 3 goals and 5 assists across 14 matches this season. The playmaking numbers put him at the center of Seattle’s attack, setting up teammates as often as he’s finishing plays himself, and his combination of scoring and creating make him the focal point of Seattle’s attack tonight.
Jesús Ferreira — F. Ferreira provides a different look going forward, picking up 3 assists across 15 appearances this season. He gives Seattle another way to break down Philadelphia’s back line beyond the more direct approach Rothrock and Rusnák bring, rounding out a Sounders attack that spreads its output across multiple players rather than leaning on one.
Philadelphia Union
Milan Iloski — F. Iloski has carried Philadelphia’s scoring load this season, netting 8 goals in 16 appearances, comfortably the highest total on the Union roster. His finishing is the reason opposing defenses have to account for the Union’s attack at all, and for a team with a 2-4-10 record, his production has been the rare bright spot.
Indiana Vassilev — M. Vassilev has chipped in 2 goals across 15 appearances for the Union this season, giving Philadelphia a secondary scoring option in midfield. He and Danley Jean Jacques, who has matched his output with 2 goals in 15 appearances, form a modest supporting cast behind Iloski that the Union will need to activate if they hope to trouble Seattle’s defense.
Frankie Westfield — D. Westfield has been Philadelphia’s most productive defender going forward, tallying 4 assists across 13 appearances this season. That kind of output from the back suggests Philadelphia is willing to push numbers forward even against a Seattle side that arrives with a far better record, and Westfield’s distribution from deep gives the Union a route into the final third that doesn’t rely solely on Iloski.
