A lively contest is on the cards at Providence Park as Portland Timbers take on St Louis City on Thursday morning, with both sides arriving in impressive form and favouring an attacking approach. Portland produced a thrilling 5-4 victory over Minnesota United last time out and have won 86% of their last 10 home matches, scoring an excellent 3.00 goals per game. Top scorer Kevin Kelsy will be the man to watch, while Aravena, Bye and Mosquera remain injured.
St Louis City, meanwhile, will be looking to build on a convincing 3-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps. The visitors have won 70% of their last 10 matches and boast an impressive 75% away win rate during that period. They have also scored 2.50 goals per away game, although Conrad Wallem is suspended for this encounter. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
As six of the seven H2H meetings produced at least three goals, we are tempted to place our bets on Over 2.5 goals, alongside Both Teams to Score, and Over 3.5 goals.
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 10 September 2026 at 03:30.
