Portland Timbers vs Seattle Sounders Prediction and Betting Tips | August 25, 2022

Portland and Seattle will square off this weekend.

Portland Timbers and Seattle Sounders will go head to head at the Providence Park in the MLS on Saturday.

The hosts head into the weekend unbeaten in their last three games against the Sounders and will look to keep that run going.

Portland were left empty-handed for the second game running, as they fell to a 4-1 defeat against Sporting Kansas City last Monday. That followed a 3-1 loss against Toronto FC a fortnight ago, which snapped their ten-game unbeaten run.

With 33 points from 27 games, the Timbers are tenth in the Western Conference standings, level on points with Seattle Sounders, who have a game in hand.

The Sounders, meanwhile, fought back from two goals down to salvage a thrilling 3-3 draw at LA Galaxy on Saturday. Before that, they were on a two-game losing streak, suffering 2-1 defeats against Atlanta United and Real Salt Lake respectively.

Seattle head into the weekend winless in their last five away games, picking up one point from a possible 15 since a 2-0 win at Toronto FC in July.
