St. Louis City host Portland Timbers in MLS, with the hosts sitting 3rd on 51 points from 31 matches, while the visitors are 11th with 37 points. Both teams have had similarly inconsistent results in the latter part of the season and both need points from this match to finish the season well. St. Louis City have a clear late-game problem, conceding 28% of their goals in the 76-90 minute period, while Portland Timbers have a similar weakness but score more often late on. Both defenses are therefore a question mark ahead of the game. If St. Louis City score first from their strong home attack, the game is likely to open up into a long exchange, because Portland Timbers do not sit deep and are ready to respond at every moment.
