VANCOUVER, BC – The battle for Cascadia dominance continues on Sunday afternoon at BC Place when Vancouver Whitecaps FC play host to longtime rival Portland Timbers (3:30 p.m. PT on TSN – limited tickets still available).
Created by the supporters of Seattle Sounders FC, Vancouver Whitecaps FC 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 'Caps 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.
Following last year's crown, Vancouver has won six Cascadia Cups, two more than Seattle and three more than Portland. They currently trail both teams by one point in this year's standings, but have a game in hand.
The teams will meet a total of nine times this year, with each club playing the others three times during the MLS regular season. The full 2017 Cascadia Cup schedule and standings and all-time winners list can be found below:
