Key Points:
- The Seattle Sounders face Tigres UANL in Monterrey, Mexico, tonight in the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals, marking their first visit since 2013 and their eighth consecutive away match.
- The Sounders enter on a six-match unbeaten streak, having defeated the Vancouver Whitecaps twice in the previous CCC round, while Tigres are struggling with a 2-4-1 record in their last seven matches.
- Tigres have an unbeaten home record against non-Mexican teams in CCC play (25-0-6), including a strong record against MLS teams, but recent form and league pressure may impact their performance.
- Stefan Frei is expected to start in goal for Seattle, holding the MLS record for most CCC appearances by a goalkeeper, while both teams have key players out due to injury or suspension.
- The match kicks off at 6 PM PT at Estadio Universitario and will be broadcast on FS2 and TUDN, with the return leg scheduled for next Wednesday at Lumen Field.
