CONCACAF Champions League
Seattle Sounders might have had 5 days of rest, which is a rarity for the MLS teams so late in the season, but I won't be expecting a full strength line-up today. Couldn't find any reports about who will play, but looking at their schedule (they will have 4 consecutive away games: at Saprissa, at Columbus Crew, at Monterrey and at Chicago), and knowing their priority is the MLS play-offs, I sure they will count on some of their fringe players. That won't necessarily change much of the team's face, but with their poor displays so far (losing both matches, at home with Monterrey and at Marathon) we shouldn't expect too much from them. Saprissa, on the other hand, is looking to have found their pace, having 4 games without losing, and it looks like they are going to repeat the line-up that trashed Perez Zeledon at the weekend with 4-1. Meaning that Centeno, Sequeira and their other 'big names' should start tonight. Confidence is high at Saprissa, and a win today will get them closer to the qualification. And with their good form showed recently on their home stadium (defeated Marathon with 4-1 in their last Concachampions match), I'm pretty sure they will be too good for the Sounders. GL!
Deportivo Saprissa @ 1.85, 4/10
Result: 2-0, WON
