It’s almost here! After a seven-day gap between matches in an incredibly busy month, Sounders FC is set to return to the pitch on Sunday afternoon against Orlando City SC. The Rave Green hope to complete the season sweep versus expansion sides in 2015 after a 3-1 win against New York City FC in May at Yankee Stadium.
