FC Dallas vs Portland Timbers: Match Predictions

FC Dallas has limped their way into the post-season, but they’re in it nonetheless. Because of the way they faltered towards the end, Dallas is one or two teams (Philadelphia Union) entering the playoffs on a losing streak. Does this matter? Maybe. None of that matters if Dallas can put together a complete game and take care of business at home tonight against the Portland Timbers.

Win? Advance. Lose? Stay home.
