Analysis Portland

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after having eliminated: Seattle Sounders, Los Angeles, Real Salt Lake, SJ Earthquakes, LA Galaxy, Vancouver Whitecaps, Orlando City, Philadelphia Union, New York City and Cincinnati. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 37 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 22 conceded. In the last 10 home league matches Portland Timbers has a record of 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 20 points out of 30 possible. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 0‑0 (5 out of 11 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have been able to score first and have done so in 18 of the last 23 matches for the MLS, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 10 of those 18 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 11 of them. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 23 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 11 home matches for this competition: they have suffered 9 of their 17 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The Portland Timbers campaign is a positive one and we cannot deny that. On the other hand, they have been stumbling lately, which shows that they need to pay a little more attention to their matches. In their stadium and in front of one of the worst teams in the competition, it is mandatory to win again. Therefore, the team has to impose itself and control the duel from an early stage, in order for things not end up getting complicated.

Confirmed Lineup: Steve Clark, Larrys Mabiala, Pablo Bonilla Serrada, Jorge Villafaña, Dario Župarić, Diego Valeri, Diego Chará, Eryk Williamson, Yimmi Chará, Jarosław Niezgoda.
Coach: A. Flores Mejía.

Analysis Galaxy

The away team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a away loss by (2‑0) against Los Angeles. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 35 conceded; against 5 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 24 goals scored and 30 conceded. In the last 8 away league matches LA Galaxy has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 24 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 4 away matches. In their away league matches there are a few frequent results at half‑time: 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and 0‑1 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 5 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 18 of their 47 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

What Los Angeles Galaxy has been doing in Major League Soccer is hard to believe. The team is in the last position of their conference and has one of the worst campaigns in the entire championship. With the end of the regular season approaching, there is not much to be done, but there is a way to improve their numbers. Of course, it won't be easy, but it will depend on them. In order to score in the current round, they will have to show a much higher quality football.

Confirmed Lineup: Jonathan Klinsmann, Julian Araujo, Emiliano Insúa, Daniel Steres, Rolf Feltscher, Nick DePuy, Carlos Harvey Cesneros, Perry Kitchen, Jonathan Dos Santos, Yony González, Cristian Pavón.
