Prediction: 2-2
Portland Timbers
Allianz Field will host Sunday’s MLS game between Minnesota United and Portland Timbers, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Western Conference. The Loons aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Seattle Sounders, and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s game. Goalkeeper Dayne St. Clair is on international duty with Canada, while defender Michael Boxall is out of contention through injury.
Portland Timbers, on the other hand, did well to beat Los Angeles FC in the midweek clash, with the team climbing to sixth position in the standings. Giovanni Savarese’s troops aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and given their attacking potential, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Midfielder Eryk Williamson represents USA at the 2021 Gold Cup, but Croatia international Dario Zuparic returns from suspension.
Highlighted Player (Romain Métanire):
Born in Metz, France on March 28. 1990, Romain Metanire is a defender, who plays for Minnesota United in the Major League Soccer. Metanire started his senior career at Metz and after playing for the likes of Kortrijk and Reims, he moved to United States of America.
The 178-cm tall footballer made his debut for the Loons on March 3, 2019 in a 3-2 win over Vancouver Whitecaps in the opening match of the season. Despite being born in France, Romain Metanire represents Madagascar on the international stage. He made his debut for the national team in a 2-2 draw with Senegal in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. His preferred foot is right and his main position is right-back.
Romain Metanire helped Reims secure automatic promotion to the Ligue 1 in the 2017/2018 season. Reims clinched top position in the Ligue 2 in style, 15 points clear Nimes, but the following season Metanire made only five appearances in the French elite division.
Highlighted Team (Portland Timbers):
Founded in 2009, Portland Timbers is a soccer club based in Portland, Oregon. The Timbers are well known for their green kit and their secondary colours are red and black. Portland welcome their opponents at Providence Park and the capacity of their home ground is 21.144.
The club hold a long-running rivalry with Seattle Sounders as the two clubs used to face each other in the North American Soccer League. In 2015 Portland Timbers did remarkably well to win the MLS Cup and that is considered the club’s biggest success.
The Timbers defeated Columbus Crew in the final of the tournament and it has to be noted that the title game was hosted by Mapfre Stadium (Columbus).
Former Premier League footballer Liam Ridgewell played for Portland in the 2015 MLS Cup final against Columbus Crew. Speaking of the club’s supporters, you should have in mind that the Timbers sold out almost every home game in the MLS. Portland’s main supporters group is the Timbers Army.
