Player to Watch: Kristoffer Velde

In what's been an inconsistent season so far for the Timbers, Norwegian forward Kristoffer Velde has been a solid contributor leading the club with 6 goals and 6 assists in MLS play so far this season. The 26 year old winger isn't the largest target at just 5'10", but utilizes his movement and speed out on the wing rather than relying on physical play. Velde will need to be contained by CITY's defense on Wednesday night at Providence Park.

Do they have any St. Louis-area players?
