Portland Timbers desperately need points on Sunday, Sep 20 at 4:30 AM in the MLS. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.
Portland Timbers come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Atlanta United, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
In 6 previous meetings, Portland Timbers lead 1–3 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Portland Timbers won 1–5. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Portland Timbers a slight edge, but Atlanta United are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
