The Storyline
Timbers2 (6-6-9, 31pts) continued their unbeaten streak, bringing it to five straight matches last week in their thrilling come-from-behind 3-3 draw with Austin FC II. Max Eisenberg gave Portland the extra-point with a top-bin effort in the ensuing PK shootout to continue Timbers2's momentum heading to Los Angeles. With seven matches remaining in the 2024 MLS Next Pro season, T2's test in Fullerton against LAFC2 could be a preview of the challenges heading into the playoffs.
LAFC2 (10-6-4, 36pts) is looking for their third-straight win on Friday night as they look to secure their grasp on third place in the Western Conference. Their form has been mixed as of late, registering a 2-2-2 record since the beginning of July. The Timbers are the first of three straight matches against PNW opponents for LAFC2 as they travel to Vancouver and then return to LA to face Tacoma over the next couple weeks.
