The LA Galaxy and Portland Timbers face off on Saturday in an MLB game at Dignity Health Sports Park. When these two teams faced off on April 3rd it was the Galaxy that secured the 3-1 victory.
Portland Timbers
The Portland Timbers come into this game sitting in 12th place in the Western Conference having picked up 15 points. Portland has lost three games in a row including the last game against Inter Miami 2-1.
The last win came four games ago against Sporting KC and in that game the offense scored seven goals. Even in that game though the defense gave up two goals and they are going to need the defense to be better in this game.
Portland has scored 21 goals total while their defense has given up 25 goals total. Portland is averaging 1.4 goals per game while their defense is giving up 1.67 goals per game. Bill Tuiloma has been the top player for the Timbers scoring five goals.
LA Galaxy
On the other side of this matchup is the LA Galaxy who sit in 5th place in the standings having picked up 23 points. In the last game against Austin, LA Galaxy scored four goals and that led to the three point victory.
At times the Galaxy’s offense has been inconsistent and two MLS games ago the offense didn’t get on the board against the Houston Dynamo, and that led to the 3-0 defeat.
LA Galaxy has scored 17 goals while the defense has given up 15 goals. LA Galaxy is averaging 1.21 goals per game while their defense is giving up 1.07 goals per game. In this game the offense is going to need to be good.
Free Portland Timbers vs. LA Galaxy MLS Analysis:
The Timbers defense has been awful all season and I expect the LA Galaxy are going to have no issue running up the score in this game. Look for the LA Galaxy to run up the score but Portland will also score a few goals too. Back the over to cash.
