Prediction: 2-2
Portland Timbers
PNC Stadium will host Sunday’s MLS game between Houston Dynamo and Portland Timbers, the two teams who defeated San Jose Earthquakes and Vancouver Whitecaps respectively at the weekend. Houston are eyeing their third consecutive league win, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to watch in the home team will be Sebastian Ferreira, who scored a brace in the triumph over San Jose, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Timbers, on the other hand, aim to climb to the playoffs berth, and given their attacking potential, over 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. In their last meeting at the venue the two sides played out a thrilling 2-2 draw. The likes of Diego Gutierez, Hunter Sulte, Felipe Mora, and Tega Ikoba should miss out with injuries, speaking of the away side.
