Club America vs Portland Timbers Prediction and Betting Tips

Club America will face Portland Timbers at the Q2 Stadium on Wednesday in the final round of the 2025 Leagues Cup group stage. The Mexican side have endured a rather disappointing regional campaign and now need multiple results to go in their favor alongside a win this week if they are to finish in the top four in the Liga MX table.

America played out a 2-2 draw with Real Salt Lake in their opening game but ultimately lost the contest on penalties. They, however, found themselves on the right side of the result in game two, playing out an entertaining 3-3 draw with Minnesota United in regulation time before going on to win the penalty shootout.

Portland Timbers, meanwhile, breezed past Atletico San Luis in their group opener last Wednesday as they thrashed the Mexican side 4-0. They made it two wins from two on Saturday as they beat 10-man Queretaro 1-0 thanks to a first-half strike from Cristhian Paredes.

Rose City sit second in the MLS standings with six points and will advance to the knockout stages with maximum points on Wednesday.

Wednesday's game will mark the third meeting between the two teams.

The Timbers have had seven competitive meetings with Mexican opposition. They have won three of those games, lost three times and drawn the other.

Club America vs Portland Timbers Prediction

America's latest result ended a three-game winless streak, and they will be looking to kick on from that this week. They are favorites for this one, but will need to avoid complacency if they are to win in normal time.

Portland, meanwhile, are on a three-game winning streak after winning just one of their previous six outings. They have, however, lost four of their last five games on foreign grounds and could suffer defeat here as well.

Prediction: Club America 2-1 Portland Timbers
