Portland arrives amidst a tight playoff race
The Portland Timbers had a demanding road test at Gillette Stadium this past Saturday night that saw them come from behind to draw the New England Revolution.
The 1-1 result leaves Portland in the middle of a very tight playoff race heading into the home stretch of their 2018 campaign. The Timbers currently sit sixth in the West, tied on points with a fifth-place Sounders squad. The Whitecaps are a point behind both in seventh, but have a game in hand.
Following the game against the Revs, coach Giovanni Savarese assessed his team's outlook as they head into the final weeks.
