    Portland Timbers vs Club Tijuana: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

    Portland Timbers vs Club Tijuana predicted lineups Leagues Cup

    Predicted lineups: Portland Timbers are set up in a 4-1-4-1 and Club Tijuana in a 4-1-4-1, with both probable XIs in full below.

    In the US, the match streams on Apple TV via MLS Season Pass.

    The Timbers are priced at 51% on Kalshi to take all three points at Providence Park, barely clear of the 27% given to the visitors and a 22% draw-to-penalties line that underscores how tight the market sees this one. With both sides carrying attacking firepower and the no-draws format forcing a result, the goals markets are leaning toward spectacle. Portland close their three-game Phase One slate here, chasing the top-four finish that would send them through. Kickoff at Providence Park is set for 10:30 PM ET / 9:30 PM CT / 7:30 PM PT on Thursday, August 13.

    How Leagues Cup Phase One works

    Every club in the Leagues Cup plays three cross-league games, MLS against Liga MX. There are no draws. If the score is level after 90 minutes, the game goes straight to a penalty shootout, and the winner banks two points while the loser takes one. The top four MLS teams and the top four Liga MX teams then advance to the knockout rounds.
