Match description
Portland Timbers II hold a clear advantage in standings and form: they sit 8th vs 20th Tacoma, have 8 wins this season vs 5 for the hosts, and boast a 71% away win rate vs Tacoma’s 44% home win rate. The visitors have scored 21 goals this season (7 in the last 5 matches) vs Tacoma’s 18 (6 in the last 5), and the share of goalless matches is 14% for Portland vs 33% for Tacoma, indicating greater offensive consistency from the visitors. Tacoma, however, have a solid home defense, conceding only 0.89 goals per home match vs Portland’s 1.29 conceded on the road, while average xG are 1.45 for Tacoma at home and 1.33 for Portland away. Tacoma attempt more shots (12.33 with 4.67 on target at home vs 11.14 and 4.14 for Portland) but convert less efficiently (10% vs 12%), so the hosts’ attacking activity does not translate into goals as effectively. Considering Portland’s higher table position, better away record and lower share of goalless matches, I tip a Portland win; estimated probabilities: 45% for the visitors, 30% for the hosts and 25% for a draw.
