The Portland Timbers travel to British Colombia to continue their 2017 Cascadia Cup campaign, as they take on the Vancouver Whitecaps at BC Place this Sunday (3:30pm PT, FS1).
After a draw with Seattle in late June, the Timbers will aim to decouple themselves from the Sounders and take sole possession of first place in the Cascadia Cup standings.
Portland and Seattle have each played in three Cascadia matches, to Vancouver's two this season, and after four total games, the Timbers and Sounders sit tied atop the standings with four points per team.
Created by the supporters of the Sounders, Whitecaps and Portland Timbers, the Cascadia Cup has been around since 2004. It was contested by all three teams in USL until 2009, when the Sounders made their MLS debut. The Whitecaps and Timbers continued battling for the Cup in the lower divisions until 2011, when both moved up into MLS, allowing the Sounders to get back in on the competition.
The teams will meet a total of nine times this year, with each club playing the others three times during the MLS regular season.
