The preseason continues this evening as the Portland Timbers are set to play their final match in Tucson before returning home to Providence Park. Tonight the Timbers will face off against the Seattle Sounders, with the rivalry between the two sides bringing a little extra heat to what is otherwise a chance for the side to continue improving their match fitness.
What’s more, the match will be the first since the Timbers signed Argentine winger Sebastian Blanco earlier this week, potentially giving fans their first chance to see him in action with the Green and Gold. New addition Lawrence Olum will also join the team for his first match since the Timbers acquired him from Sporting Kansas City.
