On the 4th of December, Portland Timbers hosts Real Salt Lake at Providence Park in a meeting of these two closely matched Major League Soccer teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 7 degrees, which will make playing unpleasant. Portland Timbers has not played yet this season, and neither has Real Salt Lake.
Portland Timbers is opening up their season after finishing last season 8th in the tables, while Real Salt Lake is opening up their season after finishing last season 6th in the tables.
