Portland Timbers vs FC Dallas Predictions
Dallas are the worst-performing away team, they have lost all five games that they have played away from home, have hardly scored any goals, and defensively are very weak. Portland is not in great form either, but we think they are strong enough to win at home against an opponent struggling as much as Dallas.
