THE PREDICTION

The youngest franchise in MLS have played two matches at home in Texas and both matches have been goalless draw against San Jose Earthquakes and Columbus Crew. They have been fairly average throughout the campaign. They come up against a Portland Timbers side that are one of the better sides but have suffered through a difficult campaign. The visitors have won just one of their last four matches. Given that poor form as well as the back-to-bac goalless draws for Austin at home, this one is likely to be low-scoring.
