The still flailing Portland Timbers (2-5-1) host the almost equally inept Columbus Crew (2-4-1) at Jeld-Wen Field this Saturday, May 5, 2012 at 7:30 p.m.
The match will be broadcast live on KPTV 12, Freedom 970, and La Pantera 940 AM.
The big question is which Timbers team will show up – the giant killers who defeated top of the table Kansas City two weeks ago, or the pathetic and uninspired Timbers who fell apart at Montreal last weekend.
