FC Dallas will be looking to make it three wins on the spin and cement their Western Conference playoff spot, when they host the Portland Timbers at Toyota Stadium on Saturday night.
Eric Quill's side currently occupy fourth place in the Conference table and are just six points behind leaders Vancouver. With a favourable run of fixtures coming up over the next month, victory on Saturday will give Dallas an excellent chance of closing the gap at the top and potentially claiming the Conference title.
Portland's postseason prospects are currently hanging in the balance, and with just ten games remaining, they are currently in one of the Conference wild card places. The good news for Portland fans is that the Timbers are currently playing their best attacking football of the season and have now scored in 14 consecutive games. If the Timbers can tighten up their leaky defence, they will have every chance of making a return to the postseason.
