THE PREDICTION
There were contrasting fortunes for these Pacific North West rivals in the MLS is Back Tournament with Portland Timbers surprising many onlookers by going on and lifting the trophy while reigning MLS Cup champions Seattle Sounders scraped through their group only to be comfortable beaten by LAFC in the last 16. You feel Seattle are bound to hit their stride at some stage though – especially given the talent in their roster – and they will be motivated to resume their regular season with a bang here but the hosts will be carrying plenty of confidence from Florida. This could therefore be quite an open and attacking game with both teams finding the net, as has been the case in the last five meetings between them in all competitions.
