Rose City Forecast Three: Timbers vs Houston

Welcome to the third round of forecasting the Timbers’ match!

If you missed it last week, PTFC took the lead in the 8th minute off a gorgeous counter attack finished by Chara. Just because there were no more goals scored does not mean the match was boring, however. There was dive-gate (resulting in two yellows to Van Damme - Goodbye!), and there was Nagbe with his once biannual yellow card. And his was the first of the match, so none of you got points on that. Who could’ve predicted? In the end, the Timbers started 2-0-0 for the first time ever in MLS, and got a road win in March.
