LA Galaxy vs Portland Timbers Lineups & Team News
LA Galaxy
We have to admit that LA Galaxy’s last Major League Soccer game was a joy to behold. The 3-3 draw at Q2 Stadium versus Austin was truly something impressive. Especially, considering the fact that LA Galaxy were training 3-1 up until the last 10 minutes of the game.
Predicted lineup – Bond (GK), Edwards, Mavinga, Yoshida, Leerdam, Rosell, Puig, Delgado, Boyd, Sharp & Fagundez
Portland Timbers
The Timbers are still in the fight for a place in the final series, despite having a goal ratio of -4. Coach Giovanni Savarese got sacked a couple of weeks ago, and the results swiftly improved. We believe that if our LA Galaxy vs Portland Timbers predictions succeed, the Timbers will surely have a place in the final series this year.
Predicted lineup – Bingham (GK), Mosquera, McGraw, Zuparic, Bravo, Caliskan, Acosta, Antony, Moreno, Asprilla & Mora
Player to Watch: Riqui Puig
Ever since LA Galaxy’s men in charge introduced Riqui Puig to the fans, he’s been a fan-favorite. The up-and-coming playmaker has been a delight to watch recently. Just a few days ago, he turned a controversial penalty into a goal for coach Greg Vanney in the match against Austin. Surely, he’d like to keep the momentum going with a solid display against shaken Portland Timbers. We believe the former Barcelona starlet has the required stuff to make our LA Galaxy vs Portland Timbers predictions a massive success.
