For Portland Thorns vs. Kansas City, Sutton is picking Portland to win it all for a -170 payout. The Thorns are going for their third NWSL championship, and the expert believes their experience at this level will help push them past Kansas City. Sutton is also expecting a big game from Thorns forward Sophia Smith after she scored 14 goals this season.
Portland and Kansas City ended their last matchup in September in a 1-1 draw, although the Thorns were the more impressive team away from the scoresheet and Sutton sees them getting over the hump on Saturday.
"In that Sept. 18 meeting, the Thorns recorded 28 shots, including 9 on target, and held possession for 58% of the match," Sutton told SportsLine. "In comparison, Kansas City managed just four shots on target and equalized in stoppage time thanks to Hallie Mace's goal. I expect the Thorns to handle business this time around and be crowned champions of the NWSL on Saturday."
