Vancouver comes into this game hoping to break Portland’s 4-game winning streak against them as Portland looks to get the season off to a good start and build on last season’s playoff spot.
These odds from Betfred were correct at the time of writing. Check your bet slip before confirming it.
The Timbers have won 4 of their last 5 games against Vancouver and won 45% of all matchups between the two teams, compared to Vancouver’s 30.95% win percentage in the Past. Portland finished the Western Conference in the Western Conference with 5 points and 12 points. Recent and historical forms suggest that Portland will take the points.
Portland has already played two competitive games this month and has remained undefeated in its CONCACAF Champions League games. Vancouver has one of the league’s worst defensive and offensive capabilities last season and Portland an advantage in the games between these teams as a whole. In addition to the latter’s better match fitness in competitive games, it should be a Timbers victory.
Portland had the second best offensive in the West last season with 2 goals per game (46 goals from 23 games), while Vancouver had 1 , 17 goals per game (27 out of 23 games) had the second worst. Both teams also conceded over 1.5 goals per game. There are goals in this game, where one team has a good offensive and both have questionable defenses.
The Canadian Marc Dos Santos is the head coach of the Whitecaps. Previously, he was head of Montreal Impact. Dos Santos’ profit share is 23.7% from over 30 games that have been responsible for Vancouver since 2018. Goalkeeper Maxime Crepeau is out with a thumb injury. With Vancouver having two other high-profile goalkeepers, Crepeau’s absence will not destabilize the team significantly.
The Timbers are coached by former Venezuelan international Giovanni Savarese. Savarese has been at the top since 2017 and its winning percentage from 111 games is 45.95%. Winger Sebastian Blanco is out of the opening game with a knee injury and striker Jaroslaw Niezgoda has a similar problem. Both players played less than 1000 league minutes for the Timbers last season. No major absences in the team, but a hit for the squad.
