Portland Timbers
Expect an electrifying atmosphere at PayPal Park as San Jose Earthquakes and Portland Timbers go head to head in an eagerly-awaited MLS game. San Jose failed to win the previous six games in all competitions and given their difficulties at the back, home win should not be considered. It has to be noted that the Earthquakes conceded nine goals in total in back-to-back defeats to New York City (1-5) and FC Cincinnati (2-4). All Bruno Wilson, Jamar Ricketts, and Daniel are sidelined with injuries.
The Timbers, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous four MLS games. As Portland are eager to return to winning ways as well, we are tempted to place our bets on both teams to score. Forward Marvin Loria should be the only absentee in the away team. In their last meeting in the Major League Soccer Portland Timbers defeated San Jose Earthquakes 4-2.

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.
