As both look to push that bit closer to the Western Conference summit, the Vancouver Whitecaps and the Portland Timbers will go head-to-head at BC Place on Saturday evening. Things were going very well for the Canadians, who went into their fourth game of the new season unbeaten but they were unable to stave off a very decent RSL team at home last time out, eventually losing by two goals to one. Similarly, the Timbers lost last time out too, and they've now lost two on the spin.

Our Vancouver Whitecaps vs Portland Timbers Prediction

The early lines would have us believe that this is likely to be a high-scoring fixture, but if we scratch beneath the surface, it's not too difficult to adopt the opposite view. Moreover, it's not tough to conclude that odds of +125 on 'Under 2.5 Goals' are a little generous. For starters, both teams have scored modest averages of 1.00 goal in their respective home and away games this season, while it's not as the Vancouver's home games have been packed full of chances, with the hosts averaging only 0.80 xG for, conceding a respectable average of 0.96 xG. Such numbers don't exactly scream goal-filled game. Our Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals.
