Seattle Sounders FC is an American soccer club founded in 2008, after the city of Seattle was awarded a Major League Soccer (MLS) franchise. The club began playing competitive soccer in the 2009 Major League Soccer season. It plays its home games at Lumen Field, competing in the Western Conference of the MLS.[1] The current Sounders FC is the third soccer team from Seattle to bear the Sounders nickname. The tradition was started by Seattle's North American Soccer League team in 1974, and continued by the city's United Soccer Leagues side, formed in 1994.[2] The current Sounders FC is an entity distinct to both of these clubs, and played its first MLS game on March 19, 2009, against the New York Red Bulls.[3]

The Sounders record against each club faced in competitive matches, both domestically and internationally, are listed below. As of the 2023 season, there have been six different competitive competitions the Sounders have competed in. These include the MLS regular season, the MLS Cup Playoffs, the U.S. Open Cup, the Leagues Cup, the CONCACAF Champions League, and the FIFA Club World Cup.
