As a result of the unlikely run of Real Salt Lake, winning two road games where they were heavy underdogs, first in Seattle, then in Kansas City, the Portland Timbers are the highest remaining seed in the Western Conference, and as a result, will host Real Salt Lake for a chance to make their third trip to the MLS Cup in the past seven seasons.
The Western Conference Final is scheduled for Saturday, December 4 at 3:30pm at Providence Park. The Eastern Conference final will be the Philadelphia against an opponent that we won’t know that until Tuesday. If New England wins that match they will host the final, otherwise the final will be hosted by Philadelphia.
