Orlando City vs Columbus Crew
Exploria Stadium
An interesting battle is taking place at the Exploria Stadium in Orlando when Orlando City welcomes Columbus Crew. Two teams with the same amount of points in a game about the 3rd place. Orlando City are still unbeaten at home soil after nine played games and haven’t lost to Columbus Crew since 2018. The south state club comes from two consecutive wins against Atlanta City and Montreal Impact. Players to keep an extra eye on in the home team are 20 year old Daryl Dike, 7 goals, and Chris Mueller. 6 goals.
Columbus Crew are currently on 3rd place, just before Orlando City. They're a strong home team but have been underperforming when playing away. Last away win came back in July and now they’re going up against one of the strongest home teams. Expect a tight game where Orlando City are favourites to win.
Portland Timbers vs Colorado Rapids
Providence Park
The Western Conference leaders Portland Timbers will face Colorado Rapids in a game where the Rapids are playing for a spot in the Playoffs. Since this season’s Playoff spots will be decided by points per game instead of points, the Colorado Rapids still have a chance to clinch a spot with less games played than their oppositions.
Make sure to look out for Cole Basset in Colorado Rapids. The skilled midfielder has scored five times this season and has played a vital part for the Rapids season.
Portland Timbers tops the Western Conference and have done so for the majority of the season. They come from a 1-0 win over Vancouver Whitecaps and before that they trashed Los Angeles Galaxy with 5-2. Portland Timbers is the team that has scored the most goals of all teams this season, Colorado Rapids will have to be careful when pushing on for three points.
Los Angeles Galaxy vs Seattle Sounders
Dignity Health Sports Park
Another team that is looking to claim a spot in the Playoffs is Los Angeles Galaxy with Dominic Kinnear as manager. LA Galaxy have been a disappointment this season and have lost eight of their last eleven games. Still they have a realistic chance of reaching the Playoffs but then they’ll need to find a better stability in their performances. It’s a tough game coming up when they welcome 3rd placed Seattle Sounders to Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson.
Seattle Sounders are already qualified for the Playoffs but will play for a better position in the table. The Sounders have been impressive this season as they’ve continued to look strong and solid, just like in previous seasons.
