Seattle Sounders will be the favorites in this clash; they are not only playing at home, but also have a good run compared to Portland. The last time the two met, Sounders registered a resounding win and here they meet a Portland side winless in three straight matches and with a very poor defence. Sounders have scored two or more goals in four of their last five matches and facing a Portland side that has conceded 10 goals in the last three matches places them on a better footing. Here a win for the home team is clearly a good pick.
