Sun 19th Apr, 01:30 BST, Allianz Field, Saint Paul

Phil Neville is aiming for a vital away win in the Major League Soccer on Sunday morning, as he takes his Portland Timbers side to the Allianz Field to visit Minnesota United and Eric Ramsay. Recent form, head to head (H2H) stats, predictions and odds from leading bookmakers are all laid out below. We're here to give you everything you need to place an intelligent bet. Here we've gone for over 2.5 goals, but why not take a look and see if there's another bet you prefer?

Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

As you can see, our prediction for Sunday's game is over 2.5 goals, meaning that we expect Minnesota and Portland to score 3 goals or more combined during the standard 90 mins. 2 goals or fewer would mean a losing bet but, with stats below suggesting both teams have goals in them, we think there's good reason to feel confident.
