Felipe Mora is 4/1 to break the deadlock and 6/5 to score anytime. 

Match preview

Last season, these two were MLS Cup Finalists and Western Conference leaders, but now both are below that all-important play-off line.

Of the two, Portland Timbers' position is less enviable, with only San Jose Quakes below them in the west.

Last weekend, Yimmi Chará gave his side the lead in Carson, only for LA Galaxy to equalise just two minutes from time.

This 1-1 draw means Giovanni Savarese's side are now winless in four, only beating Sporting Kansas City since 9 April.

Colorado Rapids meanwhile are four places and three points better off.

They too battled to a 1-1 draw on the road last time out, with Michael Barrios opening the scoring at Yankee Stadium against champions NYCFC.

Robin Fraser's team have won five times in 2022, all at home, with their last road victory in any competition coming on Halloween.

Who will climb up the standings with a victory at Providence Park?
