St. Louis City vs. Portland Timbers Free Betting Pick

We are entering the 18th matchday of the MLS Season, and we will have less action than usual, as only four matches will be held on Saturday. However, these games could still have great implications on the table. Precisely, two teams in the middle of the table that need to rise, like St. Louis City and Portland Timbers, will face.

A win could be the fuel they need to challenge for higher positions, so they’ll leave everything on the pitch.

Why Bet on St. Louis City?

We are currently looking at the match that will be finishing our weekend’s events, and it will be hosted by the Western Conference’s 11th-placed St. Louis City. They have been unable to replicate the success they had as the Western leaders last season, having three wins, eight draws, and four losses to this point.

In recent outings, St. Louis suffered three defeats in their last six matches across all competitions. However, it seems like the team is ready to kick the pace back up for their upcoming matches in the MLS. 

They come from a great draw against Inter Miami by 3-3, in a match they could have won except for a late goal by Jordi Alba.

Why Bet on the Portland Timbers?

The Portland Timbers, sitting as the 9th-placed team in the Western Conference, will be the visitor for this clash. They are looking to improve on their five wins, five draws, and seven losses run.

The Timbers have faced challenges on the road with three losses in their last six away matches in MLS. Now, they visit a difficult stadium against an opponent that’ll come in high spirits.

The team has had a draw, a loss, and three wins in the last five, so they seem to be in relatively good form, except for the aforementioned results on their away matches. 

Final Betting Analysis: St. Louis City vs. Portland Timbers

These teams have faced two times, with the particularity that the visitor always won and by the same score (2-1).

This clash will be a test for Portland to show if they have been able to fix their form and keep themselves at a consistent level. At the same time, it will be the match where St. Louis City needs to get things going their way if they are to try and get back up on the scoreboard. Let’s consider that their momentum is looking pretty bad after racking 75% of their season’s losses in the last five matches.

We are expecting the hosts to finally get back on track and win this clash to get themselves the three points that they need. We’ll go for another 2-1.

Go for a victory for the locals at 1.765. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $76.5 for a total payout of $176.5.
