How the game will play out
- Robert Vilahamn has Portland set up in a front-foot 4-2-3-1 system, where they look to stretch the field with width, control the tempo and get their creative midfield players on the ball.
- It's a good game of styles that we believe will make for a very cagey 90 minutes; Portland are the likelier side to nick it at Providence Park, but this game looks set to be a grind rather than a one-sided affair.
