However, it should also be noted, Saturday’s hosts have seen five of their last six domestic contests finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, last seen putting in another downbeat display, Portland find themselves in the midst of an extended struggle. In their opening 15 MLS matchups so far this season, they have recorded just three wins, six draws and six defeats, scoring 21 and conceding 25 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 15, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 12th in the Western Conference and four points adrift of breaking into the Final Series spots. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 loss away at Inter Miami, Portland have lost four of their last five MLS matchups.
