We said: Seattle Sounders 0-2 Al Ahly

The MLS campaign does not begin until late February, and Seattle have not played in a competitive fixture, aside from a few friendlies since October, while the Egyptians have competed in plenty of meaningful games this year. We anticipate the firepower and experience of Al Ahly on the international stage will be too much for a Seattle team who might not physically be in the same kind of game shape as their opponents.
