The Earthquakes will be happy to get this stretch of games behind them. After facing the Seattle Sounders and FC Dallas at home, they went on a three-game road trip against the New England Revolution, Houston Dynamo, and Minnesota United. Having picked up only 6 points from their last 5 games, San Jose will want to grab another 3 against the Timbers.
Portland has looked pretty strong in their last five, however, and boast the league’s most prolific attack. With the probable return of at least one key player, along with the new additions from this offseason settling into the team nicely, this Portland team are capable of wreaking havoc on anyone and everyone in the league.
