Team News

Houston
Portland
  • Hector Herrera has suffered a knee injury and is out indefinitely.
  • Nelson Quinones is out for the season with a knee injury.
  • Sebas Ferreira is "out for a while" with a hamstring injury.
  • Luis Caicedo is not with the team.
  • Claudio Bravo has had tendon surgery and is out 10-12 weeks.
  • Marvin Loria has had knee surgery and is out 4-5 months.
  • Felipe Mora has a minor toe injury and is still a doubt.
  • Evander has been doing some light training with his foot issue but is still a doubt for this match.

Prediction

  • Houston was eliminated from the Concacaf Champions Cup this mid-week by Columbus. With the injuries the team has already suffered, the depth just hasn't been enough to compete in two separate competitions.
  • Portland comes into this match beating NYCFC on a beautiful late strike from Evander. Portland has two wins with one draw and will look to remain unbeaten, while Houston searches for its first win in MLS.
