St. Louis City team news and form: Home side needs a win
St. Louis City have only a three-point gap between themselves and the bottom of the table. Perhaps the injuries of Rasmus Alm and Joakim Nilsson have ruined some of the manager’s plans, but he will have to adapt if he wants to get the three points over the Timbers.
Predicted lineup: Burki (GK), Yaro, Orozco, Girdwood-Reich, Totland, Wallem, Hartel, Ostrak, Becher, Klauss & Teuchert

Player to watch: Joao Klauss
After a rather disappointing 2024 Major League Soccer campaign, it seems that Joao Klauss is back to his usual best, with seven league goals since the start of the current season. The Brazilian goalscoring machine is a firm starter under coach David Critchley’s rule, which is good news for our St. Louis City vs Portland Timbers prediction.
Klauss is all about scoring goals
The 28-year-old striker doesn’t have a single assist in 2025. However, we doubt coach Critchley cares too much about that, as long as his player keeps on finding the net as often as he has done so far.
