Monterrey vs Portland Timbers Lineups & Team News
Monterrey
We mentioned the word ‘consistency’ in our Monterrey vs Portland Timbers prediction already. And it’s a perfect one to describe coach Ortiz’s side. Monterrey were at the top of the Clausura table throughout the entire campaign last season, but the team is putting up a fight in the 2023/24 Apertura as well. With four Monterrey victories and a draw in five official games, surely our Monterrey vs Portland Timbers predictions can’t lose.
Predicted lineup – Andrada (GK), Vegas, Moreno, Medina, Aguirre, Meza, Gonzalez, Ortiz, Berterame, Funes & Cortizo
Portland Timbers
The Timbers are getting dangerously close to the bottom of the table in MLS’ Western Conference. Right now, the only teams doing worse are LA Galaxy and Colorado Rapids. And now coach Savarese’s boys have to somehow defeat Monterrey… nothing is working in Portland Timbers’ favor these days.
Predicted lineup – Ivacic (GK), Mosquera, Mabiala, Zuparic, Bravo, Chara, Paredes, Loria, Boli, Moreno & Evander
Player to Watch: Evander
Monterrey may be the bookmaker’s favorite, but we are sure that if you were to ask coach Ortiz who the key player on the pitch will be, he’d agree with us that it’s Evander. The Timbers’ central midfielder is one that can do it all – score, create, assist, and tackle.
Evander is the 2nd-best finisher at coach Savarese’s disposal, but he’s also 2nd in the creator’s charts. Evander brought eight returns for his manager in MLS already, so he should be the key threat to our Monterrey vs Portland Timbers predictions this week.
