Facing the Timbers

The Lions have had the upper hand against Tuesday’s opposition in their five previous fixtures, holding a 2-1-2 record against Portland throughout Club history, with each victory coming in The City Beautiful. Orlando City earned a 4-1 victory over a then-reigning MLS Cup Champion Portland side in 2016 and followed that with a 3-2 win at previously-named Orlando City Stadium in 2018, erasing a two-goal deficit in the final 10 minutes to take all three points on the afternoon. Current Lions forward Chris Mueller started that very rally in the 80th minute of play, scoring his first MLS goal in his rookie campaign.
