Recent form

Portland Timbers

The Portland Timbers have shown impressive form recently, winning four of their last six matches across all competitions. Their offensive prowess is particularly noteworthy, with the team scoring 16 goals in these six games, averaging an impressive 2.67 goals per game. All of their recent matches have been high-scoring affairs, with over 2.5 goals in 100% of the games. The Timbers have been especially dominant in their home matches, securing convincing victories against Colorado Rapids (4-0) and Real Salt Lake (3-0). Their 4-1 win over Nashville SC also stands out as a particularly high-scoring game. Despite their current 8th position in the league, the Timbers' recent form suggests they are a team to watch, with their ability to score freely and their improved defensive record (two clean sheets in six games) potentially setting them up for a strong finish to the season.

St. Louis CITY

St. Louis CITY's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 6 games.

Their games have been entertaining for neutrals, with both teams scoring in 83% of these matches and an average of 3.17 total goals per game. The team's goal difference of -1 over these six games suggests they've been competitive, but need to tighten up their defense to improve their league position.
