PLAYOFF LINE: The 'Caps sit only one point below the playoff line, and could jump into a playoff spot for the first time this season with a win on Tuesday. Whitecaps FC are also only six points behind LA Galaxy and Nashville SC, tied for fifth place. Earning a positive result will be key, with Seattle only one point behind them.

CUBAS ARRIVES: New Whitecaps FC midfielder Andrés Cubas has joined up with the team after starting both matches for Paraguay during the FIFA window against Japan and South Korea. The Argentine born ball winner is expected to be on the travel roster for this one.

DEEP IMPACT: Both teams will be missing players on international duty. Lucas Cavallini is away with Canada, and Javain Brown with Jamaica. For Sounders FC, Cristian Roldan and Jordan Morris are with the U.S., and Albert Rusnák is with Slovakia. Both sides have plenty of options to fill in, but who will come out on top?
