Last two games Portland won both, scoring 9 goals, and conceding 3.
Last two games the Crew won both, scoring 7 goals and conceding 0.
See what I just did there?
Also can you point out the benefit of easing up to play an extra game? No one is saying to rush players back, but if you don't finish top 2, you play an extra game. It will be one game far more competitive than the last four matches you could have used to avoid that match all together. Finish 5th or 6th and that extra game is away, and we know how stats favour the away teams in MLS, right?
