The Seattle Sounders lead the all-time series against Tigres 2-1 since 2013.
Tigres has a strong home record against non-Liga MX teams in CCC play (25-0-6).
The Sounders are currently on a six-match unbeaten streak.
Tigres are in uneven form, with only one win in their last five matches.
The Sounders are the only MLS team to have won the modern Champions Cup (2022).
Why this matters: The winner of this series will advance to the semifinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup, a major step towards qualifying for the Club World Cup. For the Sounders, it's a chance to prove MLS can compete with Liga MX's best. For Tigres, it's a chance to continue their dominance at home.
The Seattle Sounders face Tigres UANL in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinal. The Sounders have a slight historical edge, but face a tough challenge playing in Mexico, where they have a poor record (1-6-3). Tigres, despite recent struggles in Liga MX, are formidable at home, particularly against non-Mexican teams.
The Sounders are coming off a strong run of form, fueled by a solid defense. Tigres, however, will rely on players like Rodrigo Aguirre, who has been effective in the CCC. This match marks the fourth time these teams have met, with Seattle previously securing a quarterfinal win in 2013 and a Leagues Cup victory in 2021.
