Toronto preview: Hoping to halt their winless streak
Theo Corbeanu’s equaliser in the 51st minute against New York Red Bulls gave Toronto a bit of a fighting chance to return to winning ways after three consecutive losses, but both teams instead settled for a 1-1 draw.
Defender Zane Monlouis sustained a first-half injury in that stalemate and faces a race to be fit ahead of this game for the hosts, who are 11 points behind the playoff placement.
Ahead of this matchup, Toronto are the second-worst team in the Easter Conference, with only three wins after 18 games (D5, L10).
Predicted lineup: Johnson (GK), Thompson, Long, Rosted, Junior, Longstaff, Coello, Dominguez, Petretta, Corbeanu & Brynhildsen.

Player to watch: Felipe Mora
In the absence of top scorer Antony Alves, Portland Timbers will call upon Felipe Mora to provide goals this weekend. The former Cruz Azul forward has five goals and three assists in 12 starts this season. It will be interesting to see how he performs against one of the conference's worst defences.
