The Portland Timbers (10-12-6) return to Jeld-Wen Field today to take on the San Jose Earthquakes (6-11-11).
Portland is in excellent form of late, especially on the defensive end, with three shutouts in a row. Still on the cusp (at the moment, the wrong side of it) of a playoff position, a win tonight will only do them favors. San Jose are not in particularly good form (record last five: L-L-T-W-L), but are always dangerous with scorer Chris Wondolowski, who has already garnered 10 goals this season on 81 shots.
The match kicks off at 7:30pm, and will be broadcast on KPTV and estrellaTV 8.3. Listen to the game on 750 AM The Game and La Pantera 940 AM.
