Portland Timbers

Monday’s football game between Vancouver Whitecaps and Portland Timbers will bring down the curtain on round 1 of the new MLS campaign.

Philidelphia Union

Columbus Crew begin the title defence with a match against Philadelphia Union at their MAPFRE Stadium. The reigning champions in the CONCACAF Champions League clash against Esteli, with Gyasi Zardes scoring a brace. The 29-year-old is likely to prove a handful for Philadelphia defenders, but Sunday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home team.

We evaluate essential betting statistics such as goal averages, BTTS rates, and clean sheet frequencies to assess team balance and playing style.

Recent MLS seasons have produced an average of around 2.9 goals per match, with home teams winning roughly 47% of the time.
