The latest round of the Cascadia Cup is just a bus trip to Portland. The Seattle Sounders will look for only their third road win in MLS play over the Portland Timbers. The Rave Green are nearing full health. According to Brian Schmetzer, the injury situation is “getting better, everybody's available.” But the Green and Gold do not have that luxury. Their defense has two injuries and a suspension. They are also missing their 4th best attacker.
Seattle is 8th in the West with a 5-7-5 -5 record. Portland sits at 4th with a 7-7-3 +3 performance.
