The MLS season is finally kicking off, with Sounders FC set to host Charlotte at Lumen Field on Saturday. Co-hosts Brad Evans and Steve Zakuani start with a quick preview of Wednesday's 3-1 CCC victory over Guatemalan side Antigua GFC; a win that included goals from Paul Arriola, Pedro de la Vega, and Albert Rusnak. Brad and Zak also preview a Charlotte side with a proven head coach in Dean Smith, along with new signing Wilfried Zaha, a player Zakuani knows very well... leading into special guest Gaby Zakuani, older brother of Steve and former professional footballer in England's top flight leagues.

It's a two-match week for the Sounders, so it's also a two-episode special from the Sounders FC PodCast. Longtime Seattle soccer fixture Pete Fewing joins the podcast, with tons of stories to tell, centering soccer history in the Sound.

Sounders kick off on Wednesday, February 19th at 5pm PT for an opening CCC match against Antigua (available to stream on Fox Soccer Plus / ViX / CONCACAF Youtube), before a quick turnaround back to Lumen Field for the MLS Home Opener.

The Sounders are back from preseason in Spain and ready to begin a gauntlet of a season. Co-hosts Brad Evans and Steve Zakuani begin by looking back at some preseason results, and commend Craig Waibel, Brian Schmetzer and staff for putting together a roster with depth all around the pitch. And it's a good thing given the congested upcoming schedule: scrimmage vs Louisville on the 12th, CONCACAF Champions Cup vs Antigua on February 19th (away) and February 26th (home)... not to mention MLS play kicks off on February 22nd when the Rave Green host Charlotte FC. Phew.
