San Jose Earthquakes
In the framework of the upcoming MLS matchday on Saturday, March 24th, San Jose Earthquakes and Seattle Sounders will compete at PayPal Park. Here is the match prediction from the experts at DailySports.
San Jose Earthquakes
The "Fools" have had an exceedingly poor start to the current campaign. Currently, the club from San Jose occupies the bottom spot in the Western Conference standings. In all four initial encounters, the "Quakes" suffered defeats.
In particular, last Sunday, San Jose Earthquakes played an away match against Sporting Kansas City and suffered a 2-1 defeat, although Luci Gonzalez's charges scored first in that encounter. It's worth noting that San Jose has the weakest defense in the conference, conceding nine goals with a goal difference of -6.
Seattle Sounders
The situation in the championship is only marginally better for the "Sounders," who hold the penultimate position in the Western Conference standings. However, unlike their opponent, Brian Schmetzer's team managed to secure points after losing the opening match, drawing with Austin (0-0) and Colorado Rapids (1-1). Both matches were played with the support of their home fans, whereas their away match in the third round against Philadelphia Union was halted.
