Portland Timbers host St. Louis City at Providence Park, Portland, OR on Thursday, Sep 10 at 4:30 AM in the MLS.
Portland Timbers come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). St. Louis City, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 2D 0L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Portland Timbers head into this on the back of a defeat, while St. Louis City arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
Head-to-head records offer little separation — Portland Timbers and St. Louis City have split their 7 meetings almost evenly (2W–2D–3W). Their last encounter ended in Portland Timbers won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Portland Timbers a slight edge, but St. Louis City are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
