Seattle at Portland Match Preview
Seattle has lost 3 of their last 4 matches, including their last 2, but they are still in first place in the Western Conference 4 points clear of 4th place Portland. The Sounders have not scored in their last 2 matches and in their previous match they only scored 1 goal in a 3-1 road loss to Portland in the US Open Cup.
Portland is coming off an embarrassing 5-0 loss to defending champion L.A., but at home they are the betting favorite facing the struggling Sounders.
This is the 2nd MLS match of the season between these 2 teams, as Seattle’s Clint Dempsey scored the only goal in the 1-0 Sounders win at the end of April. However, this time the Timers are at home and Dempsey, who is tied for the 3rd most goals in the MLS, is still suspended for his actions in a recent match.
The Sounders are without Dempsey, but they still have Obafemi Martins, who is tied with Dempsey for goals scored, and an offense that has scored the 2nd most goals in the West. The team still misses Dempsey, but they will not so much if Portland plays defense like they did in their 5-0 thrashing at the hands of the Galaxy in their last match.
Despite the L.A. loss the defense is still the strength of the Timbers, as they have only scored 17 goals in 17 league matches.
The Timbers had their 4-match winning streak snapped in their last match.
Fanendo Adi (6 goals) and Maximiliano Urruti (3 goals) are the only Portland players that have scored more than 2 goals on the season and they will be counted on to provide the offensive spark.
Free Soccer Pick
The Sounders’ offense is struggling and they are without Dempsey, but I think even as the underdog playing in a tough place to play in Portland they will come out with the win. They have much more experience, especially in the midfield, and they will score the big upset in what is the biggest rivalry in the MLS.
