LAST MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers defeated the Philadelphia Union 3-0 before 21,144 fans at Providence Park on Aug. 4, extending their unbeaten run to 15 league games, which matches their MLS club record for consecutive games without a loss.

Providence Park opened on April 14, 2011, in front of a sold-out crowd in the Timbers first-ever home match as an MLS team. The club proceeded to sell out all of its regular-season home games in the team’s first eight MLS seasons. Spanning the 2013 and 2014 seasons, the Timbers compiled an MLS-club record 22-game unbeaten streak (12-0-10) at Providence Park from April 6, 2013 to June 1, 2014.

HEAD COACH GIOVANNI SAVARESE Entering his first season with the club after being named head coach on Dec. 18, 2017, Savarese, the third head coach in Portland’s MLS history, brings over 25 years of professional experience as a player and coach to the Timbers organization. A native of Caracas, Venezuela, Savarese joined the Timbers after spending the past five seasons as the head coach and sporting director of the New York Cosmos, where he developed one of the most successful clubs in the NASL, compiling a 6526-44 record in 135 regular-season games, including a career-best 20-7-5 record in 2016 and an undefeated NASL Spring Season in 2015. Additionally, the Cosmos scored 223 goals during Savarese’s five seasons at the helm, which rank as the most in the NASL during that stretch. Savarese also led the Cosmos to four Soccer Bowl appearances, claiming the 2013, 2015 and 2016 championships. Most recently, after a 10-7-15 record in the 2017 regular season, Savarese guided the Cosmos to their third straight appearance in the NASL championship match, narrowly falling 2-0 to the San Francisco Deltas. Prior to joining the Cosmos organization, Savarese, who holds a USSF “A” license, served as the head of youth development for the New York MetroStars/Red Bulls from 2005-2007, before joining the Cosmos as the club’s academy director in 2010, with a focus on developing youth talent in the greater New York area. Savarese served as the Cosmos academy director for two years before being announced as the head coach of the first Cosmos team in 28 years on November 19, 2012. Savarese enjoyed an 18-year professional playing career, including five seasons in Major League Soccer, scoring 159 goals in 322 games played in various leagues in the United States, Venezuela, Italy and England. At the international level, Savarese earned 30 caps for the Venezuela National Team from 1989-2001, scoring 10 goals, including a notable finish against South American rival Argentina in 1996. After beginning his professional career in Venezuela with Deportivo Italia in 1986, Savarese spent five seasons (1990-95) playing in the Cosmopolitan Soccer League and the USISL before being drafted by the MetroStars in the inaugural MLS SuperDraft in 1996 as the ninth overall selection, notching a teamrecord 41 goals and 94 points in 85 regular-season appearances during three seasons with the club. The striker’s record stood until 2009 when it was surpassed by Juan Pablo Angel. Following his three seasons with the MetroStars, Savarese spent the 1999 MLS campaign with the New England Revolution, scoring 10 goals in 27 appearances. Shortly afterward, Savarese joined Italian Serie A club A.C. Perugia and was loaned to A.S. Viterbese in 2000, before returning stateside to join the San Jose Earthquakes in the 2000 MLS season. After a brief stint with the Earthquakes, Savarese joined Swansea City where he scored 14 goals across all competitions, prior to signing with Millwall F.C. in 2001. Following short spells with Venezuelan club Deportivo Italchacao and Italian club Sassari Torres, Savarese’s playing career concluded in 2004 after scoring five goals in 10 appearances with the Long Island Rough Riders. In the collegiate ranks, Savarese enjoyed a four-year (1990-93) playing career with Long Island University after moving to the United States from Venezuela in 1990. Savarese has also served as a member of the media, working as an analyst for ESPN International and ESPN Deportes. Giovanni and his wife, Michelle, have two daughters, Valentina and Alessandra.

Portland’s last home regular-season loss occurred more than a year ago on July 19, 2017. Portland is one of two MLS teams this season without a home loss.

NOTABLE QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Giovanni Savarese On how he felt about the team’s performance… “I thought the first 30 minutes in the first half we were too slow with the ball movement. We had too many guys too far back. So we were not creating too much going forward. I thought after [Andy] Polo went a little bit higher and found space going forward, then we started creating chances. We had the [Diego] Valeri chance. We had a couple of others towards the end of the first half. I thought the second half was much, much better. We went a little bit higher with our line. We pressured a little bit higher and then I think after we found the first goal then the guys were able to dominate in possession. I thought we were very good defensively in the second half; we didn’t allow them to get into good spaces. Only one time in the beginning of the second half and overall I thought, more than the performance, it was a good, good win and the team knew how to get this win and that was very important today.” Portland Timbers midfielder Diego Valeri On preparing for different tactical looks from opponents… “We manage it by being smart and aggressive with the ball, and trying to be effective when we have chances. I think in the last 10 minutes of the first half, we missed a couple of chances that probably could have given us an opportunity to manage [the game] better, but [opposing teams] come here they try to make it hard. We did very well to manage that and I’m very happy about the run we’re having.” Portland Timbers midfielder David Guzmán On scoring his first goal of the season… “The most important thing was that again we got three points, and we played well. When I got the goal, and the way that I got the goal, I just tried to tell everybody that we should be calm about it, when we’re celebrating, because when you train well and you have important games at home, you should get those kinds of results.”

PORTLAND TIMBERS VS VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC SATURDAY, AUG. 11, 2018 SCOUTING WHITECAPS FC

UPCOMING MILESTONES

Saturday’s game marks Vancouver’s second match in four days, with Whitecaps FC battling Toronto FC to a 2-2 draw in the first leg of the Canadian Championship at BC Place on Wednesday. With the 2-2 result, Whitecaps FC is unbeaten in its last four games across all competitions, dating back to July 21. While playing away from home this season, Whitecaps FC has posted a 3-7-2 record. Forward Kei Kamara leads the team in goals (9).

With a win or a draw in Saturday’s match, the Timbers would extend their unbeaten run to 16 games since April 14, which would set a new MLS club record. Portland is the only club in MLS to produce a 15-game unbeaten run twice in MLS play.

HEADS UP

Portland defender Larrys Mabiala has played every single minute of 27 consecutive MLS matches for Portland (2,430 minutes), dating back to 2017. Only one field player in MLS has a longer active streak of consecutive minutes played (Sporting Kansas City’s Ilie Sanchez - 2,880 minutes). Additionally, with 20 appearances (20 starts) this season, Mabiala is the first Timbers defender to start a season with 20 straight starts in MLS play.

Through their first 20 games in league play, the Timbers are tied for the most headed goals (11) in MLS, with midfielder David Guzmán scoring the team’s most recent header in a 3-0 win over the Philadelphia Union on Aug. 4. Portland defender Larrys Mabiala has recorded four total goals in 2018, all headers, ranking third in the league for headed goals in 2018.

UNBEATEN AT PROVIDENCE PARK

SCORING AT HOME Since the start of the 2016 season, the Timbers have been one of the most prolific home teams in the league, with 92 goals scored at Providence Park. Portland’s 92 goals since 2016 rank tied as the third-most in the league, despite playing at least two fewer home regular-season matches than teams in the league that have score more home goals than the Timbers in league action during that stretch.

HOME FORM Despite playing their first five games of the 2018 campaign away from home, the Timbers still maintain one of the strongest home records since the start of the 2016 campaign. During that stretch, Portland has recorded 30 wins (30-5-9) at home, which ranks tied as the second-most in the league, despite playing two fewer games than MLS teams ranked in the top five for home wins during that span.

CASCADIA CUP AT A GLANCE Saturday’s match marks the Timbers’ second game that will count toward the 2018 Cascadia Cup standings, and the first between Portland and Vancouver this season. The Timbers’ opening Cascadia Cup match occurred against Seattle Sounders FC earlier this season on June 30. Portland notched a 3-2 win, behind a brace from defender Larrys Mabiala and a goal from forward Samuel Armenteros, with the team tallying its first regular-season win in Seattle. Heading into Saturday’s game, the Timbers are the reigning Cascadia Cup champions, winning the annual competition for the second time in the last six seasons in 2017.

TIMBERS INJURY REPORT QUESTIONABLE: Eryk Williamson (left thigh) OUT: Modou Jadama (left thigh) * As of Aug. 9, 2018

IRONMAN

The Timbers are unbeaten in their last 16 games played at Providence Park, dating back to July 19, 2017, when the team fell to Real Salt Lake. During that stretch, Portland has recorded 13 wins, three draws and zero losses in games played at Providence Park.

STINGY DEFENSE Since the team’s unbeaten streak started in mid-April, Portland has conceded just 13 goals in regular-season play during that stretch, which is at least five fewer than any other club in that span. For comparison, Whitecaps FC have conceded 37 goals since April 14.

BETWEEN THE PIPES In his 14 regular-season starts this season, goalkeeper Jeff Attinella is undefeated and has conceded just 11 goals. His goals-against-average of 0.79 is the best in the league. Additionally, Attinella’s 404-minute clean-sheet streak (April 14-May 19) is the longest by a Timbers goalkeeper in MLS play. As a team, the Timbers have conceded the third-fewest goals (25) in the league this season.

CLEAN-SHEET VICTORIES Prior to the team’s 2-1 win over LAFC on May 19, the Timbers recorded three consecutive shutout victories for the first time in their MLS era and the first time across all eras in club history (since 1975) since a four-game shutout streak in the 2007 campaign (June 28-July 13, 2007). Dating back to the start of the 2015 MLS campaign, the Timbers are tied for the sixth-most clean sheets in MLS, with 31 clean sheets during that stretch.

DOUBLE-DIGIT WINS Twenty games into the 2018 MLS regular season, the Timbers have already secured 10 wins in league play. Portland reached the double-digit win plateau this year in the fewest number of games in any of its eight MLS seasons since joining as an expansion club in 2011.

REIGNING MVP Midfielder Diego Valeri entered the 2018 MLS season as the reigning Landon Donovan MLS Most Valuable Player, after becoming the first Timbers player to receive MLS MVP honors following a record-setting 2017 campaign. Valeri’s record-setting season was highlighted by a team-high 21 goals, a career-high for the midfielder, and a team-high 11 assists, marking the fourth time the midfielder has hit double digits in goals and assists in his five seasons in MLS.
