The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 16‑08‑2018, and ended in a (4‑1) win by DC United.

Analysis Portland

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a home win by (2‑1) against Sporting KC. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses in away matches; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium. 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.

They have conceded the first goal in 16 of their 28 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

The season presented by the Portland Timbers is made up of swings and logically aims to curb it. Therefore, it should focus on the search for consistency and homogeneity within the four lines. In a game like this they will need to be smart and show more qualified football because there will be no ease. On the pitch they will need to mark very well and at the same time impose thesmelves as they need a favorable result to keep fighting for a playoff spot. In this match Julio Cascante, Kendall Mc Intosh, Zarek Valentin, Modou Jadama, Larrys Mabiala, Jeff Attinella and Marco Farfan will be out for being in the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Steve Clark, Jorge Villafaña, Claude Dielna, Jorge Moreira, Eryk Williamson, Bill Tuiloma, Diego Chará, Diego Valeri, Marvin Loría, Jeremy Ebobisse, Andy Polo.
Coach: P. Neville.

Analysis DC United

No matter if they play at home or away, as points will need to be added as many times as possible.

In this match Oniel Fisher, Jalen Robinson and Chris Odoi-Atsem will be out for being in the medical department.
