THE PREDICTION
The home team comes into this on the back of their second defeat of the season at home to Seattle Sounders; their other defeat came on the opening day and those two losses sandwich three successive victories in between as they have started the campaign in reasonable form. A theme of their matches has been goals with 16 goals and both teams scoring in four of those five matches. They come up against a Portland Timbers side that have struggled to balance the continental competition commitments early on in the season with just two victories in their opening eight games in all competitions. Given that, the home team will come into this match as the favourites.
