Portland Timbers vs Real Salt Lake Predictions

Portland Timbers take on Real Salt Lake in a key fixture in the battle for a playoff place in the Western Conference.

Real occupy the final playoff spot, but Portland are just one point and one place behind them in eighth.

The Timbers are winless in their last three games but have remained solid at their Providence Park home with four wins in their last six games, with one draw and one defeat, while Salt Lake have lost three of their last five on their travels and we like the look of a home win in this one.

Salt Lake have conceded eight goals in seven away games so far and Portland are averaging 1.25 goals per-game overall so we like the look of a 1-0 home win in the correct score market.
