  • Portland Timbers have the most scored goals in the second half (7) in Major League Soccer

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Portland Timbers have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 14-6-15 (win-draw-loss) from 35 matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Portland Timbers have to travel 4600 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
