Other MLS Games This Weekend - August 23-25 - Rivalry Weeek

[OgtheDim]

Already a game last night - SKC beating Minnesotta - lesson there is MLS is unexpected



FRIDAY


Atlanta @ Orlando 8pm- Orlando really does not like Atlanta - Atlanta doesn't even really notice them. Atlanta has the US Open Cup Final this week so might rest a few. What we want? Atlanta win - Orlando is the immediate need - a draw would be better then an Orlando win but 0 points for the Leos would be more useful


Seattle @ Portland 10pm - Big News right now is Timbers Army is planning a "go silent" & a walkout over the politics symbol ban MLS has put in place- this game is on ESPN. What we want? Both teams play NYRB & DCU still - DRAW with no injuries reds or yellows



Saturday


NYRB @ NYCFC7pm - Chance for NYC to create room between them & the Jersey Boys What we want? Again, NYC is probably too far away now to catch. NYC WIN


Chicago @ NER 7:30pm- There has been a slight wobble on NER the last 3 games while the Fire have been doing better. What we want? A draw


DCU @ Philly 7:30pm - 2 teams wobbling of late in the stretch drive What we want? Philly probably too far to catch so Philly win


Colorado @ RSL10:00pm - The Rapids are all but out but this is a rivalry game for both teams. What we want? We play the Rapids yet so them losing all hope would be good. RSL win


Vancouver @ San Jose 10pm - San Jose got whacked by LAFC midweek. Vancouver doing OK since Lennarduzzi was moved. What we want? Both teams play a lot of the East still. Draw
