San Diego Wave FC and Portland Thorns will clash on Wednesday night at the Snapdragon Stadium. The Wave overcame their opening-day defeat to Houston Dash, beating the Utah Royals 2-1 on the road last Saturday. Their relentless pressure was rewarded in the 17th minute before Lia Godfrey wrapped up all the points in the 86th minute. The Wave will now play their next two games at home, with Chicago visiting on Saturday night.
Portland Thorns, meanwhile, have had a strong start, winning all their first two assignments. The Thorns started the season with a 1-0 win against the Spirit before dismantling Seattle Reign 2-0 last weekend. However, it was not a performance that their head coach, Robert Vilahamn, will be proud of after seeing his side finish the game with 9 players following red cards to Cassandra Bogere and Reyna Reyes. Still, they held their own and secured the points.

Our San Diego Wave FC vs Portland Thorns Prediction
San Diego Wave is the betting favorite. They’ll want to ride on their home support to win and continue their resurgence this season. Historically, this fixture has favored the Wave, having won six of their last seven clashes with the Thorns while scoring first on three of the last four occasions. However, the Thorns have avoided defeat in their last four meetings with the Wave, with their most recent clash ending in a 1-0 win for Portland. The visitors have also improved under their new coach and are not giving much at the back. That was evident in the game against Seattle, which they won despite getting red-carded in the ninth minute. Still, we believe San Diego will break this clean sheet streak and force a 1-1 draw.
Our prediction for San Diego Wave vs Portland Thorns: Under 2.5 goals.
