Felipe Mora - Returns to training Mora (knee) was back in full training with the Timbers on Tuesday, and he told Ryan Clarke of The Oregonian that he's targeting a return to action in three weeks.
Impact Mora has undergone multiple knee surgeries over the last 18 months and has been limited to just seven MLS appearances off the bench since the start of 2022. But he's progressing well with his recovery following his most recent operation last August and is hoping to be able to feature again some time in June.

Evander - Three chances created in loss Evander took a shot on target and created three chances in Sunday's 4-1 defeat against Sporting KC.

Aljaz Ivacic - Concedes four goals to Kansas City Ivacic made four saves but conceded four goals in Sunday's 4-1 defeat against Sporting KC.
Impact Ivacic was beaten by strikes from Erik Thommy, Daniel Salloi and Felipe Hernandez on Sunday, as well as an own goal from Larrys Mabiala. He'll want to bounce back from this result next weekend against the Western Conference-leading Sounders, which have scored 21 goals through 15 matches this season.

Larrys Mabiala - Scores own goal in loss Mabiala made a block, four clearances and won one of two tackles in Sunday's match against Sporting KC. Unfortunately for him, he also scored an own goal in the 4-1 defeat.
Impact Mabiala was making his fifth start of the season Sunday filling in for the suspended Dario Zuparic in central defense, but he scored an own goal that put the game out of reach for his side.

Santiago Moreno - Comes off injured at halftime Moreno was subbed out of Sunday's defeat against Sporting KC at halftime due to dizziness after a back spasm, Portland manager Giovanni Savarese told Ryan Clarke of The Oregonian a...
Impact Moreno has started 14 consecutive league games since the start of March either in midfield or on the right wing, but he had to sub off at halftime with this injury. Marvin Loria or Yimmi Chara (undisclosed) could replace him in the XI if necessary against the Sounders next weekend.
MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Yimmi Chara - Comes off injured vs. Kansas City Chara was subbed out of Sunday's defeat against Sporting KC in the 54th minute after suffering an apparent injury.
Impact Chara had only come on for an injured Santiago Moreno (back) at halftime of Sunday's game, and he lasted less than 10 minutes before having to sub off himself. Chara has started just two league games since from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for most of the first two months of this campaign, and he will hope this wasn't a re-aggravation of that issue.
MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dario Zuparic - Returning from suspension Zuparic will be available for selection in next weekend's clash against the Sounders after serving a one-game suspension.
Impact Zuparic missed Saturday's loss to Sporting KC while suspended for yellow card accumulation, but he should take back over from Larrys Mabiala to start in central defense versus Seattle next weekend.

Pablo Bonilla - Sidelined against SKC Bonilla (hamstring) is out for Sunday's trip to Kansas City, according to the Portland injury report.
Impact Bonilla is ruled out for a fifth straight match due to a hamstring injury. Even before being ruled out Bonilla had gone as an unused substitute in all but two MLS matches. Bonilla remains an extremely limited option even when fully fit and available.

Felipe Mora - Remains out Mora (knee) is out for Sunday's trip to Kansas City, according to the Portland injury report.
Impact Mora remains on the injury report with a knee injury that has prevented him from making his 2023 debut. The forward still hasn't made a return to team training, meaning his return is likely multiple weeks away.

Dario Zuparic - Suspended against Kansas City Zuparic will miss next weekend's clash against Sporting KC with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.
Impact Zuparic picked up his fifth booking of the season in Saturday's defeat against Minnesota United, meaning he will be suspended for next weekend's game. Larrys Mabiala should replace him in central defense for the match.

Santiago Moreno - Playing through ankle injury Moreno was given the day off from training Tuesday as he's been playing through an ankle injury all season, Portland manager Giovanni Savarese told Ryan Clarke of The Oregonian.
Impact Moreno has started each of the Timbers' last 13 league games since the season opener, tallying 19 shots (six on target) and three assists from 15 chances created mostly from the right wing. It turns out he's been pushing through an ankle issue this whole time and he was given a day off on Tuesday, but he'll be back in the squad and ready to face Sporting KC at the weekend.

Sebastian Blanco - Makes season debut off bench Blanco subbed into Saturday's match against Minnesota United in the 79th minute, taking a shot and making an interception in the 1-0 defeat.
Impact Blanco made his league debut for this campaign on Saturday as he's been severely limited by a knee injury throughout the season. The 35-year-old still has a role to play for Portland, but his age and injury frequency means he likely can't be counted on to feature regularly.

Juan David Mosquera - Takes four shots against Minnesota Mosquera took four shots and created a chance in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Minnesota United. He also made a clearance and won one of one tackles in the match.
Impact Mosquera was a huge attacking threat from right-back on Saturday after recovering from a foot injury in time to start against Minnesota, but he will be disappointed that Bongokuhle Hlongwane was able to win the game for his opponents in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
