Portland Timbers Minnesota United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The Portland Timbers want a place within the qualifying zone, so as they are playing at home it is important to not trip, so it is expected that the home team will go head on. The away team will try to score hard and at the same time find spaces to exploit the counterattacks. The tendency is for us to have a busy game with a good chance of goals. We will bet that more than 2.5 goals will occur until the end of the match.
