Portland Timbers
The Timbers got a huge home win last time out against the Galaxy. They are now 7th in the West and have 31 points. They are a decent team on the road this season. Out of fifteen road matches, they have six wins, seven losses and two draws.
The Timbers attack really came to play against the Galaxy. They scored four goals in that game. On the road however, they only score 1.4 goals per game. Minnesota has a stout defense, so scoring even one goal is going to an issue. Not only that, but one goal might not be enough. The key for Portland will be to score multiple goals. This is the only way that I think Portland will have a chance.

Portland played pretty much a perfect game defensively against the Galaxy. That being said, their defense is much worse on the road. They allow 1.73 goals per game on the road. This is a recipe for disaster against a very solid Minnesota United.
Minnesota United
Minnesota only managed a draw last time out against Vancouver. The bad part about this is they were at home. The other bad part is they played one of the worst teams in the entire league and could not manage to score. They are now 5th in the West, but could move up to second if they win this game.
Like I mentioned, the Minnesota attack was stagnant all night against the Whitecaps. They are still one of the higher scoring teams in the West with 38 total goals. They even average 1.82 goals per game at home, so they still have the ability to score in a hurry.

Minnesota has a much better defense at home an only allow 0.82 goals per game. The good part about their last game was they did not allow a goal. Granted, this was a game against a terrible Vancouver club. I would not be surprised if Portland get a road goal, but that is all they should be able to muster.

The Timbers have gotten a few great road wins, but I like Minnesota to bounce back from a 0-0 draw and score all three points.
