📋 Team News: Sporting Kansas City

Kortne Ford (Achilles tendon surgery) and Willy Agada (Stress response of the bone) will not be taking part for Sporting Kansas City boss Peter Vermes.

It’s our opinion that SKC may well line up in a 4-3-3 formation in the match with Kendall McIntosh, Graham Zusi, Daniel Rosero, Andreu Fontas, Tim Leibold, Gadi Kinda, Erik Thommy, Remi Walter, Johnny Russell, Alan Pulido and Dániel Sallói.

🗞️ Team News: Portland Timbers

Portland Timbers manager Giovanni Savarese has to currently contend with reduced team options. Felipe Mora (Knee Surgery), Eryk Williamson (Cruciate Ligament Surgery) and David Ayala (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will miss out on this game.

We’re of the thinking that The Timbers seem likely to utilise a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting Aljaz Ivacic, Juan David Mosquera, Zac McGraw, Larrys Mabiala, Claudio Bravo, Diego Chara, Cristhian Paredes, Santiago Moreno, Evander, Dairon Asprilla and Franck Boli.

🧠 Prediction

In this game, Portland Timbers are certainly able to score against this Sporting Kansas City lineup, however that realistically won’t be enough to prevent defeat.

We can see a very close game with a 2-1 winning margin for Sporting Kansas City at the end of the match. Let’s wait and see how it plays out.
